The best of Hobart

Be Ozzy’s tips and picks.

MONA Museum

The Mona, Museum of Old and New Art, is one of Tasmania's great attractions. Opened in 2011, the museum puts Hobart on the international cultural route. The exhibitions combine ancient and contemporary art, with some being considered quite controversial as they include scenes of nudity or violence. The architecture of the Mona is one of the museum's strong points, in addition to the green area next to the water where it is located.

Salamanca Place

Salamanca is the historic region of the city, where the buildings of the region, built in 1830, served as warehouses for the traders of the time. Nowadays these interesting sandstone buildings have been transformed into shops, art galleries and restaurants. In Salamanca Square there are also worthwhile gastronomic and culinary options, but the strong point of the region are the parties that take place at the end of the week in Salamanca Place, with more than 300 exhibitors of local products of all kinds.

Mount Wellington

Mount Wellington is 1270 meters above the sea and offers a 360 degree view of the city. The view from the top is impressive, and the cool thing is that in winter it is possible to see the snow covering the mountains in the region. It is possible to get there by car or bus + walk. The park where Mount Wellington is located also has several trails that are worth exploring.

Port Arthur

Port Arthur is a must-see for anyone who wants to learn a little about the country's history. It was there that the British Empire sent convicts to Australia, who were held in the region's criminal facilities. Most of the buildings today are ruins, but it is still possible to explore some important points like the hospital, the penitentiary and the church. There are also other islands where you can visit guided tours to cemeteries and prisons. One of the best ways to get to Port Arthur from Hobart is by boat.

Cradle Mountain

Tasmania is the perfect place for ecotourism, and in the center of the state is Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park. In it is one of the highest mountains in the state and excellent options for nature trails. During the hikes, you will be in contact with the local fauna, breathe the pure air of the region and pass by incredible lakes. The infrastructure is excellent and so are the options for camping and accommodation in the region.
