St Helens – a Tasmanian pit stop

Flying out of Hobart back to the mainland, we did a scenic over Wineglass Bay then popped into St Helens for lunch, just North of Wineglass Bay and 30 min from Hobart. Beautifully maintained clay/gravel strip near the coast. There is a great bar/cafe a short walk away with very tasty and generously portioned food. Parkside Bar and Kitchen was an easy 1.5km walk along the foreshore. Read More

Pit stop – Dingo road house

Almost directly beneath the most direct route between Bankstown and Hamilton Island, but in line with Emerald and Rockhampton is a little dirt strip nestled behind the Dingo Roadhouse. There are no refuelling facilities for the plane, but the food was fabulous. A great pit stop to stretch the legs and refill the belly. There were also cabins if you wanted to stay for the evening.
