Wilsons Promontory is a vast granite mass of land that teems with wildlife and offers walkers endless opportunities to unplug and explore one of Australia’s most beautiful coastal landscapes. This unspoilt pristine natural environment is a place to immerse and interact with nature, which Melbournians affectionately refer to as The Prom.
The Wilsons Promontory walks provide a sanctuary for a vast array of fauna including emus, wombats, echidnas, including a plethora of bird life like Crimson Rosellas, Yellow Tailed Cockatoos and Black Faced Cormorants. The sanctuary doesn’t stop at the coast either, extending to 15000 hectares of seascape, making Victoria’s largest marine Park a living natural aquarium to dive into.
The walking will take you along pristine beaches like Sealers Cove and Oberon Bay that are punctuated by massive granite rock formations, then across coastal escarpments and rocky headlands and of course magnificent views as you walk. This area is so diverse that it also includes picturesque rivers and dense rainforest, not to mention the varied contrasting coastal flora.
Itinerary highlights
Squeaky Beach
Well-known national park featuring a scenic beach of quartz sand that squeaks when walked upon.
Tidal River
Tidal River is a locality in Wilsons Promontory National Park, Wilsons Promontory, Victoria, Australia. It contains the main park administration and service centres as well as a permanent camping ground that takes its name from the Tidal River, which flows past the camping ground to the north.
Oberon Bay
Oberon Bay is a bush campsite situated on the west side of the Prom, accessible via walking track from Tidal River or Telegraph Junction. The track from Tidal River offers great coastal views and passes through large rock outcrops, low heathland, coast tea-tree scrub and eucalypts.
Refuge Cove
Hidden-away cove beach reached by scenic walking trails, with a campsite offering basic facilities.
Sealers Cove
The amazing Sealers Cove beach is one of the most stunning places to visit in the Wilsons Promontory National Park. Due to the location of the Sealers Cove, many tourists fail to visit this breathtaking area.
Darby River
Darby River is a locality in Gippsland in southeastern Victoria, Australia. Located within Wilson’s Promontory National Park, it was the location of the original park entrance, ranger station and accommodation centre from 1909 until the Second World War. Often referred to just as The Darby, it was the location of the National Park Committee of Management Rooms from about 1909, a Ranger’s cottage from 1913, and the ‘Chalet’ for tourist accommodation from 1923. The Chalet began as a small 6 room building and expanded to more than 24 accommodation rooms, kitchen, dining hall, bathrooms and the like.
Tongue Point
A brilliant coastal walk to the tip of Tongue Point, where giant boulders tower above and the ocean drops away into the deep blue just meters from the edge. The environment is weathered yet beautiful, and the wildlife isn’t shy, often seen foraging close to the walking trails. Yes, the Tongue Point walk is one of many on Wilson Prom, but it’s truly unique and definitely worth adding to the adventure list!

Auswalk Walking Holidays
The highlights of an Auswalk walking holiday go far beyond exploring the iconic landmarks that you are going to experience on the track.
Auswalk allows you to discover Australia’s greatest landscapes in comfort. You will be carrying only a day pack as your luggage is transferred on to your next accommodation while you progress along the track. Arrive each evening to your next comfortable accommodation, ready to enjoy another display of the local produce. Rest assured that a wine list will also never be too far away.
On group guided trips you will travel with a group of like-minded people, accompanied by two professional guides allowing for the flexibility of easier and harder walk options.
For the ultimate adventure and flexibility Auswalk’s self guided inn-to-inn trips allow you to walk any day in the season, with your own group of two or more people. You will still enjoy their full support as you progress along the track from one accommodation to the next with luggage transfers, marked maps and detailed walk notes.
