"In the afternoon, pay Mt Wellington a visit for the (uncontested) best view of Hobart. It’s a comfortable 20min drive from the CBD and the road takes you to the summit. All along the mountain there are plenty of places to stop and admire including Secret Falls at the Foothills, having a bite to eat at the Fern Tree Tavern, or walking the Pipeline Track. A full list of walks around the mountain area can be found at Greater Hobart Trails."

"Drive up Mount Wellington for Sunrise and walk the Rivulet Track Mount Wellington is about a half an hour drive (20km) to the west of the city. It’s so well sign posted you can't miss it. At 1,269m above Hobart, which is at sea level, it’s pretty inconspicuous and it’ll probably be the first thing you notice when flying or driving into Hobart."

"In spacious enclosures ringed around a large grassy area, Forester kangaroos lounge about like beach-goers at this impressive wildlife park – its name derives from an Aboriginal word meaning ‘native companion’. You'll see Tasmanian devils, wombats, echidnas, quolls and a couple of mainland imports – koalas and emus – and you can watch vets working at the hospital, treating resident and rescued wildlife. Nocturnal tours available (adult/child from $160/85). Bonorong is 18km west of Richmond, well signed on the edge of Brighton."

"When you’ve finished marvelling at the artworks at the MONA, carry on to Bonorong Wildlife Park where you can get up close with wombats, Tasmanian devils and our furry friend, the koalas. Entry is $29 AUD and includes a tour (check the times). Here are some very interesting facts about these creatures. Word of warning, don’t try and pat them, they are very aggressive with their teeth."

"This World Heritage Site was where Hobart’s female convicts were incarcerated and put to work. Around 12,500 women were transported to Tasmania, and at its height the Cascades Female Factory held 1200 women – more convicts than Port Arthur ever held at a time. You can explore the hauntingly spare yards with their interpretive installations independently, or take a guided Heritage Tour or the excellent Her Story dramatisation. To get here by public transport, take bus 446, 447 or 449."

"Standing in startling, Gothic isolation next to the clean-running Hobart Rivulet, Australia’s oldest brewery (1824) is still pumping out superb beers. The daily one-hour tours involve plenty of history, with tastings at the end. Note that under-16s aren't permitted on the main brewery tour (take the family-friendly Beer School tour instead), and that brewery machinery might not be running if you're here on a weekend (brewers have weekends, too). To get here, take bus 446, 447 or 449."

"When you’re done, spend the afternoon sampling beers at Cascade Brewery, Australia’s oldest operating brewery. Or sample whiskey at Lark Distillery, one of Hobart’s famous whiskey bars. Salamanca Place has a large range of restaurants to choose from for dinner for those sweet tooth lovers, Honey Badger Dessert Cafe will do the trick (or make you sick)."
