Tasmania Cycle Tour — AllTrails Bicycle Tours

Spectacular Tasmania has always been a highlight of the AllTrails tour calendar - Welcome to the Tasmania East & West Cycle Tour.

TASSIE EAST: On Stage One we head out from Launceston passing the beautiful, freshly-painted timber homes alongside the Tamar River, heading north to the beautiful Barnbougle Golf Resort Lodge where we touch the Bass Strait on the northern shores of Tassie. Deep forest valleys are interspersed with magnificent views across cattle-strewn countryside and National Parks as you wind your way through the picturesque landscapes to the east coast. A first rest day at the exclusive RACT Freycinet Lodge will be enjoyed by all, surrounded by some of the most spectacular scenery in the state including the famous walk to Wineglass Bay. Winding down the coast to the southern reaches of the Apple Isle, we enjoy our final rest day at historic Port Arthur before making our way to Hobart.

TASSIE WEST: Changeover day is in Hobart at the impressive Grand Chancellor Hotel, overlooking Constitution Dock, an easy ferry ride to the world-renowned MONA Gallery. The rivers, bridges, hills, forests, lakes, and wildlife on Stage Two of the tour will give you plenty to look at while enjoying the quaint townships and interesting characters that you will come across along the way. Enjoy top class accommodation including Lake St Clair Lodge and RACT Strahan Village, overlooking Long Bay which opens up to the Southern Ocean on the west coast. Marvel in the wonders of the Gordon River and Cradle Mountain before hitting the north coast’s Bass Strait at Devonport, home of the Spirit of Tasmania. Close the loop of the Apple Isle as you cycle into Launceston after 3 weeks of wonderful riding, cocooned in the famous AllTrails service.
