Surroundings & things to do

Here is but a handful of things you may encounter during a stay in the Huon Valley.

• Discover fantastic little tucked-away restaurants;
• Go bush walking, fishing, mountain climbing or simply relax and enjoy the healthy fresh air in a beautiful environment;
• Visit nearby Cygnet with its vibrant village ambience, iconic restaurants, pubs, and cafes;
• Sample the seasonal fresh fruits in sweet abundance: cherries, raspberries, blueberries, peaches and apples;
• Watch the yachts and beautiful wooden boats at Port Cygnet that was once a busy port servicing the apple industry, but is now just an ideal place to mess about in boats;
• Visit beautiful Bruny Island, accessed by car ferry that is only a 20minute drive away;
• Visit the local wineries of Panorama and Hartzview;
• Immerse yourself in the skills of a bygone era at the Franklin Wooden Boat Centre; and
• Do the antique shops full of Tasmanian history.
