Set Foot in Australia’s Oldest Brewery

The Cascade Brewery is now the nation’s oldest continually opening brewery, located at the foot of the majestic Mt. Wellington in South Hobart. The daily one-hour tour provided here takes you through everything from how they pump out superb beers to the establishment of this gothic-like building towering several feets above the ground. All the tours involve tastings at the end but it is important to note that the brewer machine may not be in operation during the weekends. Under-16s can hop on separate school-friendly tours and if you prefer to jump straight to the drinking stuff and skip the tours, there is an attached Brewhouse with a restaurant/bar standing right amidst the sandstone facade of the brewery.

Be Mesmerised at  the Beauty of Lost World

Hobart has plenty of natural features that take the visitors by surprise and one of them is the Lost World, which is an amazing group of boulder fields, near the summit of Mt. Wellington. The region is a famous place for rock climbers, boulder-hoppers and bushwalkers who come here to get lost in solitude or to have some adventure time in this puzzle of nature. Hiking this rugged set of boulders is  a popular activity among the locals and tourists alike and the trail which is filled with snow gums and scattered boulders makes for a stunning landscape. The climb to the top is challenging and you'll be forced to use both hands and legs at one point to scarbole the rock faces but from the top you will be able to witness the Organ Pipes, Derwent River, Mt. Wellington and the spectacular city itself! It’s the kind of graceful space you’d love to visit as a kid and with the endless nooks and crannies in the boulders you can explore the region for days! Make sure to pack accordingly as the Tasmanian weather can change rapidly at elevation and watch out for some slithering friends on these tracks!
