Cape Raoul Trailhead Carpark

Good carpark, easy to access only the last few kms are gravel and in really good condition. The carparks looks brand new. With long drop toilets. Really clean. The track is beautiful but can be very windy at the end. About 3h return. Better than the other cape in my opinion.

This is an unpaved parking area at the end of 13k of gravel roads. There is information about the hike at the start. Over the fence the landowners have put in a composting toilet outhouse that people can use for a donation.

Car parking for anyone doing the walk to Cape Raoul. Not to be confused with the private camp ground beside the carpark. The carpark is bitumen and has plenty of space. There is also overflow parking a couple of hundred metres before.

The trail is spectacular, however there is nowhere to camp around here. Old mate let us stay on his front lawn at the Raoul Bay Retreat for a bit of coin. Ask him about luxury accommodation packages.

An easy 1 hour walk through eucalyptus forest, culminating in a spectacular view of Cape Raoul

Just had a tour last weekend. Stromlea road, connecting to Nubeena road and CR trail head car park, upgrading is almost finished. Moderate improvements in car park area of the CR is on going. Nowadays, all visitors are not required or restricted to park their van/car 100m from the original car park. A bit of walking to main entrance of CR should not bother. Wheelchair access toilet is also available at the car park. You must register your name and information regarding your trekking to a register book at the entrance. This is important for security issue :). Shoes cleaning and pathogen spray are still available as well. make sure you use before entering to the forest. :P you should be cause of damaging forest, anyway we are still doing this things in other way. But obviously you should use those spray underneath your shoes. You must be equipped with basic or emergency needs, e.g. food, water, fast aid, because the total walking could take unto 6 hours depending on your speed. if you take Ship Stern Bluff, you could take 3 hours more for return.

Beat hiking experienced in my life. I am not a bush walk fan. Suggest to get snacks along and plan early so can return in broad day light.

Car park can get quite busy. Hard to turn around. Especially if vehicles park behind the normal angle parking.Worth it though, because the walks are fantastic. Views phenomenal, tracks are in excellent condition. A must on any walkers list.

One of my fave hikes I’ve ever done in the whole world!!! 15k return amazing cliffs and views!
