2. Freycinet National Park

 


Located in the city of LauncestonFreycinet National Park’s biggest attraction is Wineglass Bay. Travellers will need to take a short hike to the observation point or to the beach itself but don’t panic if your accommodation is in Hobart, there’s a day tour package that begins from the hotel you stay in Hobart to Freycinet National Park.
