This is the runner’s version of one of Tasmania’s most popular multi-day hikes.

The Three Capes Track offers spectacular dolerite clifftop running, with dramatic drop-offs of over 200 metres. Along the way, you’ll enjoy epic views of the Southern Ocean and, on clear days, glimpses stretching toward Antarctica.

Running the track in September or October gives you the best chance of spotting migrating whales breaching offshore as they head south for the summer.
