Cape Hauy Trailhead reviews
8Trail conditions were excellent, paving and stepping stones were very well done. Weather conditions were disappointing, despite weather forecast.
Got the 7m campervan in and out on the dirt road.
Walk elevation was challenging but manageable
Great challenging day walk with stunning views. Make sure to keep a look out for the see lions which sun themselves on the rocks at the base of the candlestick. Also possible to see rock climbers ascending the totem pole.
Nice hike, some beautiful views. Lots of stairs so get your knees ready. The view at the end were nice. Even saw some seals at the bottom of the cliff
Trailhead of the cape hauy hiking located in the Tasman national park. Park pass required, camping site, bbq, toilet facilities are provided. Four hour return hiking route along the hill and coastal line. Absolutely worth the time to enjoy the stunning view of the southern Tasman island.
Must do walk. Trailhead is easy to find, just look for the boat ramp. Well marked track with lots of steps. Approx 9.5k return, took just under an hour to complete, add some time if you want to enjoy the views.
Tough 2-hour one way trip including the time I stopped to take many beautiful pictures, need to across 4 hilltops to the Cape but the view is one of the top 3 in my life, highly recommended! 1.5 hours when coming back as more downhills help a bit. Overall it’s absolutely worth the effort!
Road to the cape was mostly uphill so took me 2.5 hours to get there. View was breathtaking and definitely worth the effort.
