Conseils aux voyageurs
Se déplacer dans les environs
Hobart is serviced by buses only (Metro Tasmania)
Check website for timetable information and ticketing. Buses do not run frequently to our area so check the timetable as you are making plans. A taxi/Uber is approximately $35-$40 from Hobart and will get you where you need to go a lot quicker than public transport. Hiring a car is the best option.

Pennicott Wilderness Journeys
Make a booking in advance of the day you wish to take the tour. Fills quickly and limited seating.
Que faut-il apporter ?
Bring a range of clothing for all weather situations
Hobart is reputable for quick changing weather, the odd winter-ish day over the summer period and locals wearing shorts and t-shirts while visitors are in jeans and jumpers! Layers are a good way to go!!
