The Island

Flinders Island is an incredible location for everything outdoors. Marked by untamed beauty set amid rugged rock faces, aquamarine waters and abundant flora and fauna, Flinders is a natural paradise. Here we have curated a selection of trails for you to explore while you are here. Run them, walk them or just toddle along and enjoy the scenery.

Here you will find descriptions and downloadable maps of the tracks, as well as rough estimates of distance and elevation.
