- A spectacular walk in Tasman National Park, the Cape Raoul Track explores the missing third cape of the Three Capes Track. Initially passing through forest, the trail features spectacular views of steep dolerite sea cliffs, culminating the column-like forms of Cape Raoul itself. A worthy day walk finale for anyone looking to walk to all three capes.
This walk was a bonus hike from a South Coast Track trip. Catch up on all four South Coast Track episodes here:

Hey mate I'm one of the 3 kids that saw u in the cape to cape trail in ellensbrook
Awesome! Nice to meet you and thanks for stopping by!
Those cliffs - wow! Beautiful
It's a beautiful part of the world, easily some of the most spectacular sea cliffs anywhere in Australia
It's the best looking Cape and the best track as well i.e no bloody.boardwalks. I reckon the 3 capes track is more of a lie than a misnomer, purely false advertising especially for such an expensive track. The funny thing is that if you're prepared to camp it can be done for free and from Port Arthur which I reckon is the best way to do it. Although the huts are really well designed and fit well into the environment.
It’s a real shame because if you look at the original project plan, it was meant to truly be the Three Capes but then for whatever reason they decided it was complete when it was just the Two Capes. Perhaps the dual boat transfers and buses to both ends would have made it too expensive given it is already a pricey track
@@thelongwaysbetter Yeah, but when I looked into it and then found out it was only 2 Capes, I felt lied to, so in my book it's pretty deceptive. Not really worth the price for what I consider a pretty dumbed down (all the bloody boardwalks) and below average walk, having done Cape Raoul first, made the subsequent cape views pretty disappointing in comparison. At least the huts were great but not really worth it for the cost. I guess it's good for clueless multi day hikers as their first big walk, but Tassie has much better walks at the fraction of the price (unless you are guided I guess). Because I feel decieved, I have a low opinion of the "3" Capes track. At least one has the option of doing the free 4/5 day walk from Port Arthur to actually make a nice hike lol.
I think you mentioned you were about to do the SCT, that's.a nice one. Wonder if all the man killer bogs are still there.
