transport from Lake St Claire

Sat 28 Aug, 2010 8:31 pm

I am starting the OT on a Saturday so I guess my last walking day is Thursday. The Tassielink bus to go to Hobart from Lake St Claire leaves at 1145am Thurs or 8pm Friday. There's no chance of making the Thursday bus, so can anyone recommend another bus company that operates Thursday afternoon?

you could charter a bus/taxi. McDermotts do this. I've used them twice and both times Paul was my driver. I believe there may be other people on the forum willing to provide a charter, but I don't know this to be a fact.

Hi there. We are also going to do the overland but in late february. We are starting on a saturday but It s a bit imposible to figure out when will we fininsh the walk, if a thursday or a friday, so We are tempted to just don't book any transport to hobart and either hitchhike or try book a bus on same day.

Any of you think we should definately book transport out of Lake saint clare?. if worse comes to worse our plane doesn't leave hobart until sunday morning.
