Last year in October 2 friends and I went on a road trip around Tasmania for 9 days – it was not long enough!!! We hired a car at Hobart airport and I personally drove over 1000km. My favourite places were Westbury, Port Arthur, Bicheno and Richmond. I liked Westbury for the history factor, the beauty [...]

One of the thrills of touring my wondrous isle, showing it off to friends and their children, is to see it again and again through their fascinated eyes. And, every time, even this regular traveller discovers new gems. Most praise is for Tasmania’s diversity of landscapes, snow-capped mountains, the sunny beauty of the East Coast, [...]

Love the drive from Hobart to Orford. Most often take the route through the village of Richmond. Stick to horse and cart speed through it. Ponder the magic, the luck that has left this colonial seducer on the doorstep of the capital. Right turn. Pass over the no less seductive stone bridge, the Coal River [...]

What I like most about Tassie I love the laid back lifestyle, where you can go for road-trips, take stunning bushwalks, sample local beers and wine, and pig out on some of the best and freshest local produce in the country. Some of my favourite places I love the rugged coastlines. From the wild west [...]

There is no more inspiring way to take in Hobart than from the River Derwent. It adds a whole other viewpoint to experiencing what this city has to offer. With the highest boat ownership per capita anywhere in Australia it is no surprise that Tasmanians regard their waterways as yet another natural part of the [...]

There are many (many) walks in Tasmania. Some short, some long, and most of them are scenic. Some walks are described ‘this walk will take 1 hour’ and they are over in 20 minutes. Others are achieved closer to their stated time. We have discovered some of these inaccuracies and are on a mission to [...]
