Same day as the last post we moved on through the country to St. Mary's where we turned off to go down the Elephant Pass to stay for the fist night at the Pondering Frog which will be next post.

Photos are along the way to St. Mary's, then through the Elephant Pass which is very windy road but not that long.












Part of the road of the Elephant Pass, and the sign back to Launceston after the Elephant Pass.
Just reading the sign regarding mileage to Hobart at 205 klm, yet from Launceston down the Midlands of Tasmania it's 200km.

The Pass must be shaped like an Elephant....it has hairpin bends and is hilly. At times when looking down the side of the road one can see the top of the tall trees well below the road.
The terrain, trees and more trees.
There is a Restaurant about halfway which proves to be popular for light meals, known for their delicious pancakes.

Photos below are part of the highway towards the end of the Pass, and after a few more hairpin bends it's WOW!, you can see the sea.  East Coast of Tasmania.
If looking on the map below you can see Bicheno, and that was where we were headed.
