SEE ACTIVITIESLOCATED IN THE HEART OF THE PRISTINE HUON VALLEY
A short journey south from Hobart will find you in the magical Huon Valley – a magnet for those seeking the finest food and freshest ingredients Tasmania has to offer. The Huon is a cornucopia of fresh picked and hand-crafted delights, from sumptuous wines and ciders to seafood freshly plucked from pristine waters. It’s hard to drive any distance before stumbling upon another eatery or roadside stall secreted away and offering temptation after delicious temptation. The Huon is a place where mastering one’s craft is its own reward, allowing the local artists and craftspeople of towns such as Cygnet to take their time and do things properly. We recommend you do the same and stop by some of the studios and galleries. Perhaps you’ll find a precious memento or two to remind you of your time in the valley.
