Southern Wine Region
Arguably Australia's most distinctive city, Tasmania's capital Hobart, combines heritage charm and cultural diversity in a setting of exceptional beauty. It is a city of fishing boats, fish punts at the docks, and coffee under the sun-umbrellas where the famous Salamanca Market is held every Saturday.
Take a harbour cruise past square-rigged yachts, or drive to the summit of Mt Wellington for a bird's eye view of the intricate pattern of islands and estuaries that reach out to the sea beyond.
The wine regions surrounding Hobart are rich with a variety of landscapes and experiences. Ranging from architectually designed, ultra-modern restaurants to quaint heritage-listed cottages, these cellar doors are well worth the visit.
Stop to taste award-winning cool-climate wines en route to the colonial village of Richmond in the Coal River Valley, on your way to sampling some of the Huon and Channel regions' mouth-watering fresh produce or on your way to catching a trout in the Derwent Valley.
Things to See and Do
- Cruise the pristine southern waterways and sample regional cuisine at Peppermint Bay at Woodbridge.
- Taste the very best that Hobart has to offer with a visit to the Cadbury Chocolate Factory, the Cascade Brewery and Lark Distillery.
- Soar through the treetops and take in the spectacular river views at Tahune Forest Airwalk.
- Immerse yourself in the power of Port Arthur - its convict buildings, gardens, tours and captivating convict tales.
- Take in the breathtaking panoramic views of Hobart and surrounds from the summit of spectacular Mount Wellington.
- Experience Hobart's many food and wine precincts including the scenic waterfront, historic Battery Point and Salamanca Place and bustling North Hobart.
- Take a drive to the beautiful Derwent Valley and feed the fish at the Salmon Ponds, the southern hemisphere's oldest trout hatchery.
