Results for Hobart Adventure

Going on an adventure in Tasmania? Hobart is a great city break before exploring the famous Tassie landscape. This guide highlights my favourite spots for food, culture and history. Perfect for a budget traveller who loves hitting all the best bits.

Hobart (nipaluna) is the capital and largest city of Tasmania. It's also Australia's southernmost state capital. The city sits at the base of Mount Wellington (kunanyi) and on an estuary of the River Derwent along the island's southeast coast. It's home to about half a million people (that's 40% of the total population). This land was occupied by the Aboriginal Tasmanians before the British founded a penal colony 1804. Whalers, miners, farmers, and, eventually, Antarctic explorers, followed. Tourism has only recently begun to dominate the economy. Hobart's historic waterfront has cobblestone streets and sandstone warehouses. They're now full of new hotels, exciting art galleries, and locally sourced markets. Battery Point has colonial cottages and cute cafés. The eery Convict Trail starts here. The Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) is just a quick ride up the River Derwent. Mount Wellington hikes offer a great lay of the land. Craft breweries and distilleries keep popping up inside the city; wineries lie just outside. While the restaurant scene is booming. Hobart is more than just a stopover. You should plan to spend at least a few days getting to know Tassie's capital.

It's a sparsely populated region of Australia, land of farmers and abundant wildlife, very green and also a bit cold. After all, it's one of the southernmost places in the world. When it comes to Tasmania, you must see everything, and that's why I organized a six-day road trip that circumnavigated the entire island.
