Labillardiere Peninsular is one of Tasmania’s 60 Great Short Walks. The 60 Great Short Walks offer the best of Tasmania’s day walking opportunities.

5.5-6.5 hour circuit, 18km return. Grade 4.

This is a delightful, long and varied walk around the perimeter of the picturesque Labillardiere Peninsula on Bruny Island. It features constant coastal and mountain views, stretches of long sandy beach, and quiet sheltered bays.

For those with less time you may like to have a look at either coast and retrace your steps, or take the smaller loop which is around 4.5km. Whatever track you choose, this delightful low-level walk gives walkers a good chance of seeing wildlife and colourful wildflowers, including orchids.

Please refer to the Parks and Wildlife Service Tasmania website (parks.tas.gov.au) for up-to-date information about this walk, alerts, closures, safe walking guidelines, leave no trace principles and National Park entry fees where applicable.
