2027 Federal Rally Tasmanian Overlander
About
This year’s Federal Rally Overlander commences upon your arrival in Devonport, on Monday 8 March 2027 at 7am.
The maximum number that can be accommodated on this Overlander tour is 50 people, so early bookings will be essential to avoid missing out.
It is proposed that people joining the Overlander part of the Federal Rally are advised to travel on the Spirit of Tasmania, on Sunday 7 March (evening crossing). However, if you wish to travel at an earlier time, please ensure you are at our Monday morning breakfast stop no later than 8am.
It is important to note that the Overlander package covers breakfast and lunch on Day 1, and lunch and dinner on Day 2. You will need to book your own accommodation at each venue at your own expense, namely at Peppers Silo in Launceston, and at Eastcoaster Tasmania Resort in Orford.
