2 days in Tasmania Itinerary

Snaking up the side of a rounded, tree-dotted hill, Hobart sits between Tasmania’s sprawling mountains and the vast estuary of the River Derwent.

Kick off your visit on the 31st (Wed): admire the natural beauty at Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, then look for all kinds of wild species at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, and then snap pictures at Richmond Bridge. On your second day here, get curious at Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery, take in the awesome beauty at Mount Wellington, then steep yourself in history at Cascades Female Factory Historic Site, and finally get to know the fascinating history of Battery Point Sculpture Trail.
