King Island Rambles

Reviewed By 760peterc

If you're visiting King Island don't miss out on the KI Rambles. An early start, a short bush hike, somewhat steep in places, will get you to a quiet river location where you'll see platypuses bob to the surface. It is all very well worth the effort and an experience you'll be very glad to have enjoyed. Become one of the few people to see a platypus in the wild (only about 5% of the pop.), and learn more about these amazing creatures from Ondrea, a knowledgeable and informative tour guide.

Cape Wickham Links

Cape Wickham Links is an 18 hole golf course with hotel accommodation located on the northern tip of King Island, a short 40 minute flight south of Melbourne. Opening in late 2015 the course has quickly risen in the national and international golf industry rankings. Cape Wickham is the number 1 public access golf course in Australia, 3rd best golf course in Australia and is ranked 24th in the world on the prestigious Golf Digest top 100 list.

This place is breathtaking from the drive in to some of the views a you make your way around the golf course. Although it is a little tiresome and difficult to get to with flights and transfers, the course is nothing short of spectacular from start to finish. The greenery is top class, and each hole provides its own challenges. It would be good to play a second round there after knowing where things were, blind tees and shots to greens that are left to the unknown the first time round. Be prepared for the wind, it was blustery the day we played but not horrific so made life a little more pleasant. The clubhouse and facilities are very primitive but don't let this judge your experience as the people in them were friendly and willing to assist with towels or umbrellas. A cart is not essential, but makes the day more enjoyable so book one as soon as you know you are playing there as there are not many of them. Take plenty of golf balls if you spray it as you don't find too many that go into the salt bushes, or off one of the cliffs into Bass Strait! Really good day out, take plenty of photos as there are some amazing views around the course, and book in a second round. Will definitely go back to this course as its easy to see how its rated so high on public access golf courses in Australia and the World.
