Tasmania’s Derwent Valley is a region of rich heritage, natural beauty, and country charm, nestled along the winding Derwent River. Just a short drive from Hobart, the valley is home to rolling farmland, historic towns like New Norfolk, and breathtaking wilderness areas that lead into the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Known for its cool-climate wines, artisan produce, and a slower pace of life, the Derwent Valley offers a unique blend of rural tranquility and rugged adventure. From trout fishing in the river to exploring lush forests and cascading waterfalls, it’s a place where history, nature, and creativity thrive side by side.
