Mt Field National Park and Russell Falls from Hobart

Highlights

  • Your day trip from Hobart begins as you leave the city by coach, traveling northwest along the River Derwent. Pass by the suburbs of Glenorchy and Claremount, home to the Australian outpost of Cadbury chocolate, and spot native birds on the shores of the river. As you drive through Derwent River Valley, take note of its small towns and agricultural fields, and pass by New Norfolk on your way to Mt Field National Park, one of Australia’s oldest national parks, where you can soak up the tranquil rainforest atmosphere. Take a walk along a forest stream, and admire the tree ferns that provide a shady canopy. See Russell Falls, a tiered waterfall that’s one of the park’s most popular natural attractions. Your day trip ends with the drive back to Hobart, which takes you across Bowen Bridge for a glimpse of the Incat catamaran factory.
