Huon Valley Accommodation

Huon Valley, Geeveston, Kettering, Bruny Island, Hastings, Hartz Mountain

The Huon Valley with its green fertile land was home to the first Apple tree planted in Australia in 1788. Situated along the eastern side of the island the Huon River takes a steady path to the calm waters of the Channel D'entrecasteax. Nearby Bruny Island shelters the coastal waters, providing many opportunities for more relaxed water activities such as sea kayaking and boating. Bruny Island itself is made up of two small-ish islands and you can travel safely from north to south. Both are equally enthralling with an abundance of lush vegetation, wildlife and sealife. You can go camel trekking in the north and energy prevailing, visit the lighthouse to the south all in the same day.

The majority of forest and marine reserves in Tasmania are found in this region. The Hartz Mountain Reserve blends with the national parks off to the west and where the rivers run wild, you'll be guaranteed for a white water rafting experience to remember. The thermal springs and caves of Hastings are another must see, must do!

Alternatively you can contact the friendly staff at the local visitors centre.
