The whole experience is amazing and the set up and logistics are world class. The check in, access to Port Arthur Historic Site, bag check and then boat cruise to the hike - went like clockwork. The beach entry is memorable, the scenery on the hike unforgettable. The huts are architecturally stunning and designed in a way that socialising is so natural. Access to gas stoves, cooking equipment and water made the hike very accessible for anyone put off by the prospect of a really heavy pack. The hot bucket shower at the end of Day 2 was a nice cherry on top. I’d like to call out the ranger at our last night’s hut - Jacinta. Her geographic, historic and scientific knowledge was top notch and her enthusiasm and passion for the park, the hike and her role was second to none. Such a great person to have speak to the group after a long day 3!

Did this walk with my husband and his brother and wife. It was absolutely sensational and views that were very confronting and out of this world. I’m not too afraid of heights, but these even challenged me. You need to have a reasonable level of fitness as you climb hundreds and hundreds (1000’s) of stairs/steps. The last day is particularly hard but so well worth it. The accommodation huts were extremely good and clean though. can be noisy in the sleeping quarters. As rooms are very close and people don’t often think of the noise that they make at night, particularly if they are walking to the bathrooms, and they clip clop along the boards. The resident ranges are also fabulous. Absolutely on the bucket list of everyone I personally think.

Fantastic hiking adventure along the Tasmanian South Coast. Everywhere you looked was something beautiful: from the wild ocean to the small plants on the side of the track. Recommend doing some training before starting if you aren't a regular hiker. Well kept tracks and fantastic accomodation with comfy beds and well stocked kitchen facilities. Loved it.

This is an exceptionally beautiful area and the paths seats artwork and especially the cabins are truly worthy of it. My daughter and I carried all our clothes bedding and food but the cabins provided wonderfully equipped kitchens very comfortable bunk beds and glorious decks to lounge on. Each of the 3 cabins has a live in ranger who is friendly helpful and entertaining. I am 70 and cannot recommend this walk highly enough

What a splendid hike in all aspects! A safe, well maintained track takes hikers through some magnificent scenery along the southern Tasmania coastline. One minute, you’re climbing up an incline then the track opens to beautiful views of ocean and cliffs, especially on the Cape Pillar leg. As noted by other reviewers, the huts are comfortable and maintained very well by the resident rangers. Thanks to Nicko (Surveyors Hut), Jess (Munro Hut) and Jacinta (Retakunna Hut) for their advice, conversations and knowledge. All three are a wonderful asset to Parks & Wildlife Services with their passion for this part of Tasmania. I have to give special thanks to the staff at Port Arthur who discovered that I had unknowingly dropped my wallet in the locker room before departing on the boat to Denmans Cove. On arriving at Surveyors Hut, I was contacted and reassured that the wallet would be securely stored until I returned from Fortescue Bay. “We didn’t want you to be worried and not enjoy your hike” was the primary message. And so, I walked without any worry and most certainly enjoyed an amazing 4 days.
