Make the last day near Launceston rather than a long Freycinet diversion before a flight. Allow time for fuel, car return and unexpected slow roads.
Hobart · Tasmania Road Trips from Hobart
How should we trim a six-day drive from Hobart to Cradle Mountain and Launceston?
Our draft includes Port Arthur, the Huon Valley, Lake St Clair, Cradle Mountain, Mole Creek and Freycinet before flying out.

Keep Cradle Mountain as an overnight or longer stay with weather flexibility, and choose either the eastern or western detours around it. Check current road and park alerts.

Draw the route on a map by overnight stops, then remove destinations that require crossing the island twice. Six days cannot give every region meaningful time.
