OVER 8KM OF WALKING TRACKS

The Peninsula has over 8 kilometers of walking tracks throughout the 250 private acres for you to explore. There are a variety of walks to choose from that are all easy walking tracks designed to showcase the stunning scenery, landscape and views on the property.

Eleanor’s Walk – Everybody’s favourite: a one kilometer, 30 minute walk with fantastic views over the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, with an optional short walk down to Pebble Beach.

Seal Rocks – A relaxing 1.5 kilometer, 40 minute walk through the dry peppermint woodlands, across the ridge of Blubber Head and descend into tall moist forest.

Orange Peel – This 1.5 kilometer track starts off through the peppermint woodlands overlooking Lousy Bay to the east with views to the salmon fish farms. The track descends down into heathfields, moorlands and wetlands, quickly crossing a small creekline filled with tea tree.

Blue Rope – This walk is a 1.6km track and takes approximately 45 minutes. It takes you to the western side of the peninsula where you can stop and rest at the picnic table overlooking the bay.

Birdsong – A short walk (500m) and the best track for spotting birds on the property, with dozens of different bush birds calling in the tall stringybark forest, particularly in spring.
