Join us for Episode 16 of the ExplorOz Podcast, where we delve into part 3 of our 4 part series documenting our adventures along Tasmania's stunning east coast.

We start this episode where we left off in Ep 15 at Lagoons Beach just north of Bicheno and continue south along the coast including Freycinet National Park, Maria Island, and then the Tasman Peninsula including many wineries, epic hikes including Cape Raoul, Cape Hauy, and a day at Port Arthur. Listen in to our adventure as we reached the "end of the road" at Cockle Bay - the gateway to the South West National Park where we hiked to South Cape Bay the most southerly point of Tasmania (and therefore Australia). Pick up some tips on finding hidden gems in the area such as the Mystery Cave and how we found it compared to the mainstream experience at Hastings Caves (Newdegate Cave). In this episode we also cover the next part of our journey cutting an exciting 4WD path through remote forestry tracks for an alternative way to reach the Tarkine Forest, our hike to Hartz Peak and driving onwards to eventually Lake Peddar where there are 2 excellent free camps in the National Park.

We've spent five weeks meticulously exploring and documenting every detail and updating these places to ensure the latest ExplorOz content accessible to all users of our ExplorOz Traveller app so sit back and listen to our trip summary and hopefully feel inspired to add a few places to your next trip plan.
