Bruny Island Forest Sites
On South Bruny Island there are many roads and walking tracks travelling through State forest.
From the earliest European (Captain James Cook) in 1777, parts of this island have been used for timber harvesting. Much of the area now in reserves boasts some of the best views in the State.
On Coolangatta Road, the main link between Adventure Bay and Lunawanna are two lookouts with stunning views of the islands coastline.
From the highest point on the road a walking track leads to the highest point on Bruny, Mt Mangana at 571m. This 1.5 hour return walk has unsurpassed views of 360 degrees.
Lower down behind Adventure Bay is Resolution Road, just ideal for a bike riding trip. A stop at the Mavista Picnic Area with its short walk alongside the creek gives a welcome break before the downhill ride back to the beach.
