The Trail
Located near Cygnet, this easy 2km return walk between Randalls Bay and Mickeys beach is an enjoyable way to spend an early morning or late afternoon when visiting the area.
Leaving from the west end of Randalls Bay, the trail climbs a small set of stairs before skirting the native eucalypt coastal heath above. 500m into the walk, a short detour leads south to the tip of the coast. From here views of Cray Point in the foreground and Bruny Island in the distance, across D’Entrecasteaux Channel, are achieved.
The trial continues, gently meandering down to Mickeys Beach along a wide sandy track. Mickeys Beach is a pretty and secluded small beach with nice views. The trail returns via the same route.
