Kettering Point to Trial Bay Track
Getting There
The Kettering Point to Trial Bay Track starts at the end of Ferry Rd, Kettering or you can access from Trial Bay near the boat ramp where there is more parking.
The Kettering Point to Trial Bay Track is a perfect way to while away some time if you’re waiting for the Bruny Island ferry. This gentle walk starts at the end of Ferry Road and meanders close to the shoreline with glimpses of the water and boats through the sheoaks. At the point you will be rewarded with panoramic views up and down the D’Entrecasteaux Channel and across to Bruny Island. The Kettering Coastcare/Landcare Group cleared away choking weeds to create these tracks through the lightly wooded coastal bushland. A great variety of birds can be seen and heard, foraging amongst the black gums and blue gums, and in the varied understorey. A section extending the track through to Trial Bay was built with the help of enthusiastic volunteers. Limited parking at end of Ferry Road. Toilets, BBQ and Picnic facilities at Trial Bay.
