Mt. Wellington Tour
2015/16 Season Prices
Overview
Highlights / General details
It's one of those jaw dropping moments in life, where you reach the top of a mountain and spread out before you is a magnificent sight. Mt Wellington is definitely the place to be in awe. Once you step out of the coach the view that surrounds you is amazing, you can see Hobart, the Derwent River and beyond. On a clear day you can also see out to Bruny Island. After taking in the views we then make a stop at the Female Factory, once a convict prison for women and children.
Points of Interest:
On a clear day the views from Mt Wellington are stunning.
In the winter perhaps you will be playing in the snow - whatever the weather - take the opportunity to visit iconic Mt Wellington, the traditional indigenous name in Palawa Kani language is kunanyi.
See St David’s Park.
Pass by Anglesea Barracks - Australia’s oldest Army facility.
Cascade Valley - home of the Cascade Brewery and Gardens.
On this tour we pass through various eco systems and experience the harsh alpine environment of the mountain.

kunanyi/Mt Wellington summit - a harsh rocky alpine environment affording unsurpassed views on a clear day.
The summit of Mt Wellington offers a panoramic spectacle of Hobart town, its surrounding suburbs, vast waterways of the Derwent River.
