Special Wilsons Prom Day Trip | With Epic Hike to Mt Oberon

Details

We are heading to Wilsons Prom, the southernmost tip of mainland Australia. We’ll be hiking up Mt Oberon, spotting wildlife on the Prom Wildlife Walk, and visiting the stunning Squeaky Beach and Tidal River.

Please follow these two steps to confirm your spot:

Step 1: Please RSVP to this event on meetup.

Step 2: Please get your ticket via Trybooking ($99 - $119) - https://www.trybooking.com/DEOBN

Payments are managed through Trybooking and not Meetup. You will see an "Unpaid" status on your RSVP. The only thing you need is the Trybooking ticket which you will receive by email. I will manually update the meetup payment status closer to the event date if the names on Trybooking and Meetup are the same.

Trybooking payments are non-refundable. There is no option to transfer the ticket to a new date. Trybooking payments will be refunded only if the event is cancelled or moved to a new date.

Tentative list of locations we will be visiting:

Mount Oberon delivers some of the most breathtaking views in Victoria. The hike to its summit rewards you with a sweeping 360-degree panorama of Wilsons Promontory, overlooking Tidal River. From up top, you’ll see untouched coastline, glittering offshore islands, lush green gullies, and towering mountain ranges. The return hike is 6.8 km and takes about two hours. Grade: Level 3
Squeaky Beach - The famous white sand of Squeaky Beach is so named because of the noise it makes when you stroll along it.
Tidal River
Prom Wildlife Walk - Starting at the Wildlife Viewing Area, the Prom Wildlife Walk meanders through open grasslands where you can spot kangaroos, wombats, wallabies, and emus. It’s a flat, Grade 2 loop track, 2.3 km long, taking about 45 minutes to complete.
