This week we discuss 3 of Tasmania’s best FREE experiences that are not found on the usual tourist maps and were recommended to us by locals!
We had a brilliant time exploring Hobart’s rich history with a self-guided walking tour through Sullivans Cove and its surrounds. A great way to combine exercise and education, and discover many of Hobart’s pioneering and convict settlement stories. The Hobart Heritage Pod Walk is a must do! Visit www.heritage.tas.gov.au to download the digital map and audioguide to this awesome experience.
We also reminisce about our stay on the Tasman Peninsula, and our visit to the world heritage listed Coal Mines Historic Site. Just 15 minutes down the road from the famous Port Arthur, the ruins are incredible and tell the story of the convicts and officials who were housed here between 1833-1848.
Also located on the Tasman Peninsula is a fascinating naturally occurring phenomenon called the Tessellated Pavement. This geological rarity is found in only a few places around the world, and is a natural wonder worth exploring!
And whilst not a free experience, we also talk about our visit to Unzoo located on the Tasman Peninsula. An unconventional take on a traditional zoo, Unzoo is a sanctuary for Australian native wildlife including Tassie’s endangered Tasmanian Devil.
