Walking Tours Hobart

Overview

Travel through the Huon Valley into Tasmania's deep south for a day of forest walks, river scenery, underground geology and local produce. The route combines the Tahune Airwalk, Hastings Caves State Reserve and a relaxed tasting stop on the return to Hobart.

Highlights

Huonville and the Huon River

Pause in Huonville for takeaway coffee and supplies, then follow the Huon River while learning about the region's apple orchards, craft cider, boutique wine and salmon industry.

Tahune Airwalk

Spend approximately two hours exploring the reserve. Walk the 600-metre Airwalk through the eucalyptus canopy, take the 3.4-kilometre Swinging Bridges Track across the Huon and Picton rivers, or stay at ground level among ancient Huon pines.

Hastings Caves

Join an included guided tour through Australia's largest dolomite cave system and learn about its formations and geology. The surrounding reserve is habitat for platypus, quolls, pademelons and native birds, although sightings are not guaranteed.

Cider and apple-pie finish
