It’s a habit of mine,
to watch the sun go down on Echo Beach.

Lake St Clair from my campsite

There is a jetty at Echo Point that, on a sunny day, is the perfect place to start the day. I had my breakfast on the jetty with my friends (porridge and hot chocolate) and expressed my gratitude to the bushwalking gods.

The track follows near, but not on, the shoreline. There are limited views of the water, but most of the time it is the forest that provides the interest. I found it a very pleasant walk.

Lake St Clair

I stopped for morning tea at a spot on the shore close to the track. Not a cloud in the sky!

I met my friends on the track and we finished the walk together. The track leaves the forest as it approaches its termination at the Lake St Clair visitors centre.

Alls well that ends well

The visitors center has good food and drink, and I enjoyed lunch with my friends while doing our best to ignore the numerous brightly coloured wasps that were attracted to our drinks. Fortunately, they are not agressive.

The end of the track

I availed myself of the free shower and then boarded the mini-bus bound for Hobart, where I was booked on an evening flight to Adelaide to continue my holiday.
