Mount Wellington

Visit the majestic Mount Wellington, locally known as Kunanyi. This towering peak dominates the Hobart skyline, offering unparalleled views of the city and its surrounding wilderness. As we ascend to the summit, you'll be captivated by the changing landscapes—from dense rainforest to subalpine flora. Once at the top, take in the sweeping panoramic views. On a clear day, you can see as far as the distant peaks of the Southern Ocean. The summit offers some of the best photo opportunities in Tasmania. For the adventurous, there’s time for a short walk to explore the rugged beauty of the mountain before we head back down.

Stroll through the quaint streets, where you’ll find charming shops, cozy cafes, and the iconic Richmond Bridge—the oldest stone bridge in Australia. A visit to the Richmond Gaol is a must. This historic prison offers a fascinating glimpse into Tasmania’s colonial past. As you wander through the old cells and exercise yards, you’ll learn about the harsh conditions endured by the convicts who once lived here.
