Home > About this project

This project is an initiative of the Derwent Estuary Program in cooperation with local and State Government. In 2010 the Derwent Estuary Program organised a walking tracks forum and the various stakeholders who attended all agreed we needed better ways of letting people know about the fantastic walking and riding opportunities in and around Hobart. The Greater Hobart Trails website is the result of those discussions.

About The Tracks

There are a range of walks in the Greater Hobart region to suit everyone, from easy walks for the whole family to more challenging tracks for the experienced bushwalker. The tracks allow you to explore diverse plant and wildlife communities, interesting geographical features and historic sites. They offer a diverse range of environments from coastal beaches and bushland to hilltop vistas and rural scenes, taking in some of southern Tasmania’s most stunning scenery.
