A wonderful hike that takes in the best of the Mornington Peninsula.
Join us as we hike along some of the Mornington Peninsula's best tracks and two of its iconic spots.

We will meet at Bushrangers Bay Carpark and from there make our way along the coastal track down to the bay.
The tide will be at its lowest point as we arrive so a great time to experience the amazing rock pools at the base of Elephant rock or enjoy a swim in the bay.

From there we will climb back up to the track and follow it until we reach Cape Schanck and the lighthouse.
Then a quick trip down the steps and broad walk to Pebble Beach, the Devils Desk and Pulpit Rock.
After all that we will have a break at the light house before making our way back.
Generally an easy relaxed hike, though will include a little beach walking and a couple of short but sharp climbs . However with the outgoing tide the sand will be compact and easy to walk on.
