This is a free public garden on the edge of Hobart, just a few minutes from the CBD. 

It’s absolutely beautiful, with themed areas like the Japanese Garden, veggie patches, native plant sections, and the Subantarctic Plant House. 

You can easily spend 1-2 hours exploring the area. It’s a great spot for a picnic, or just a slow wander if you need a break from the city.

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Well-maintained lawns and walking paths

  • Seasonal displays like tulips and autumn colour

  • On-site café with indoor and outdoor seating

TO ACCESS

  • Free entry

  • Open daily, 8 AM to 6:30 PM last time we checked

  • Located just north of the CBD

  • Parking available at the main entrance

  • Map here
