Sat 28 Dec 13 - Travel Launceston to Cradle Mtn

Postby jarmfield » Sat 20 Jul, 2013 10:52 am

Hi guys,

A friend and I have booked our first OT hike starting on Saturday 28/12. Of course, after it's all booked, I then find out that the bus services don't seem to want to go from Launceston to Cradle Mtn on a Saturday. Any hints on how to get there? Is there anyone else planning a trek starting this day and who would like to share some kind of car/shuttle service?

Hi, we are booked on 25 December and will need to get to Cradle on that day to start walking. Not sure if you want to go that early but if you would like to discuss, let us know.
