Getting to the Cradle Mountain...

Sun 15 Aug, 2010 8:43 pm

Hi,

I am trying to organize a bus to Cradle Mountain is last week of October, I am looking at the the website(http://www.tigerline.com.au/walking-track-fares.htm) but all links are "dead".

Does anyone know the timetable?

Ahh, Thanks.

So it looks like it only run on Monday and Wednesday??. that makes things hard.

Being "Off Season" is there still a shuttle bus from the bus stop to Ronny Creek?

I think you would have to ring them - or email to find out - unless others know.

You might consider the other transport operations - eg http://www.tigerwilderness.com.au/bushwalker/
