We plan a longer weekend trip of 3-4 days:
Day 1: 3h, 6km, from car park to Wild Dog Creek
Day 2: 4h, 9km, from Wild Dog Creek to Lake Adelaide + 2.5h for two side trips (without pack) to The Temple & Solomons Thron and Mt Jerusalem
Day 3: 3.5h, 8km back to car park
No bigger ascents, except for first day, i.e. easy-moderate trip.
Obviously, it is possible to extend the trip by further side tracks, eventually even another day, but I do not have enough information at the moment. If time permits, we could stop at the Mole Creek Carst National Park, which would just be on the way back to Launceston:

Can be cold (even snow) there at this time, but can still be warm. Just Tassie unpredictability. The trip is thus easy to moderate, but not beginner-friendly.
Total price incl. flights and car rental is around $320 (plus your food, of course)
