Driving up the East Coast we arrived in Freycinet National Park, a mountainous wooded peninsula with some stunning beaches. The first day there we walked up to the Wineglass Bay lookout and then down onto the beach. The second day we tackled another mountain.
Mount Amos isn’t as high as Cradle Mountain, and you can walk it in half the time, but we found it equally challenging because it’s so slippery. Instead of having big boulders to gain purchase on you have a slick rock surface at angles of up to 45 degrees, and the previous evening it had rained so the rocks were still wet in quite a few places. We went up on our hands and knees and came down on our arses (mainly accidentally). I don’t think Aimee used her legs at all on the way down…
