Starting at Telegraph Saddle
Carpark, the hike to Mt
Oberon makes a steady incline as it weaves up the mountain. As you near the peak, a steep climb up steps will lead you to the rocky summit.
The 6.8km return hike to Mt
Oberon takes around two hours.
Be prepared for all weather conditions. Even in summer, Mt
Oberon weather can be windy, cool and cloudy. Take care at
the summit and beware of unprotected cliffs.
Standing 558m high, Mt
Oberon offers incredible 360-degree
views over Wilsons Prom. See sparkling turquoise water and picturesque islands scattered off the coast. Along the shore, spot the beautiful bays on Wilsons Prom’s western coast; Little
Oberon Bay,
Norman Bay,
Leonard Bay,
Picnic Bay and
Whisky Bay.
Enjoy scenic
views over
Tidal River Campground and trace the river as it weaves through coastal heath to the sandy shores of Norman Beach. Further inland, admire the rolling peaks of forested mountains.
Look south towards the southern-most tip of Australia's mainland, which is
home to an abundance of native wildlife including wombats, emus, kangaroos and echidnas. Explore the southern section of Wilsons Prom on longer hikes if you get the chance.
Hike to Mt
Oberon later in the day for one of the best best spots to watch the sunset at Wilsons Prom, but don't forget to bring a torch.
