Three hour return walk to Mount Misery, 50 minutes south from Hobart.
Oldgrowth and rainforest, sub alpine heathland, a mountaintop and small waterfall. From the rainforest viewing platform, a 3/4 hour steep climb up the escarpment cliffs takes you onto the sub-alpine heathland plateau and “Flat Rock”. From here you can enjoy spectacular 360 degree views towards Bruny Island and the Southwest World Heritage Area. From Flat Rock it is a further three quarters of and hour along the plateau to the top of Mt Misery.
This track is well constructed and zig zags through the sometimes steep terrain. Most people with a moderate level of fitness will complete this walk in around 3-4 hours including breaks.
Access to walking tracks is open to day visitors. We ask for a donation to contribute to maintenance of the tracks and roads.
