Caption: A Weekend Tasmania
Picture
Caption: To travel to Tasmania from mainland Australia, you can stay for a month or just for the weekend. Whatever you choose, you'll want to come back for another visit.
A weekend is just scratching the surface of a magical State.

Caption: On arrival in Hobart, it's just a hop, skip and jump to get your first taste of award winning whiskey at the Sullivan Cove Distillery. The staff are so knowledgeable and what a start to my visit to the Apple Isle of Tasmania.

Caption: After a good breakfast, head to the Huon Valley, South of Hobart, to enjoy a day of exploration and fun. On the way, why not stop at one of the local cafes to sample the wonderful Tasmanian produce. Pick up some great ciders too for later.

Caption: The Tahune Airwalk is a must do attraction, along with the two suspension bridges and the beautiful forest walks that dot the area. So worth it. Why not grab a bag of Huon apples from a roadside stall to munch on along the way.

Caption: MONA This Museum is Australia's largest private museum and rather controversial also. With over 300 exhibits, many of them thought provoking, it's a great way spend part of your weekend around Hobart.

Caption: If, after you have enjoyed everything so far and want more, take a drive to Mt Field National Park. Taking around one hour from Hobart, this beautiful place is home to temperate rainforests, rolling creeks and awesome waterfalls. If you take a drive further into the park, you will come across Lake Dobson in the Alpine region.

Caption: With the weekend almost over, there is always time to venture up to the top of Mt Wellington, the 9th highest mountain in Tasmania. Overlooking Hobart, you never know what the weather will be like until you're there but sunsets can be amazing. A great way to end a weekend in Tasmania.
