Dove Lake Circuit, Cradle Mountain, and Overland Track

Hard

Australia > Tasmania

World-class trail

Length

11km

Duration

5h

Elev gain

724m


Discover this challenging and wonderful loop that combines the Dove Lake Circuit and the Overland Track to summit Cradle Mountain in the Cradle Mountain-Lake Saint Clair National Park, Tasmania. The trail becomes quite steep after 2 km and combines boardwalks at the beginning with smaller paths and definitely a bit of a scramble towards the top.

The hike offers beautiful views throughout, from the blue lake, the surrounding mountain ranges to the famous Cradle peak, everywhere seems straight-out of a photo album. The flora is so unique and adds to the beauty of the hike.
