Bushrangers Bay to Cape Schanck Walk - CANCELLED

Sun, 29 Mar 2020
11:00 - 16:00

** This event has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in line with the Victorian Government's order to shut down all non-essential services and in particular for Melbournians to not travel unnecessarily to regional areas. The most reliable source of information about COVID-19 in this rapidly changing scenario is DHHS (Department of Health and Human Services). 

See our Socialising Online page for ways to stay healthy.

This is a spectacular trail skirting rugged coastline by the waters of Bass Strait.

GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Medium 13 km circuit walk. 

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION:
We follow the Main Creek Trail from the car park to Bushrangers Bay. The eucalypt forest gives way to shady thickets of coastal banksia and then to an isolated sandy beach at Bushrangers Bay. From there we follow the trail to Cape Schanck. We’ll have lunch near the 1850s Lighthouse. After lunch, we return the same way and then hopefully, time permitting, have coffee and cake at Flinders Bakehouse.
