Margate sits by North West Bay in southern Tasmania, with foreshore parks and a network of local tracks linking town and bushland. The council’s Tracks & Trails (opens in a new tab) guide includes Margate Rivulet, Margate Tramway and Dru Point tracks; check current information and choose a route suited to your group.

For a quieter natural-area stop, Nierinna Creek Reserve (opens in a new tab) has a revegetated Black gum setting, picnic area and access to Nierinna Creek Track. Respect restoration work, remain on permitted routes and plan for changing weather.

On the foreshore, Dru Point Bicentennial Park (opens in a new tab) provides a family-focused park setting near the bay. Check local information before travelling for current facilities and conditions.
