    What you'll see and do

    1. Mount Field National Park

      Mount Field is one of Tasmania’s oldest National Parks, and surely the prettiest. Only 1.5 hours from Hobart, this natural wonderland features lush temperate rainforest, moody alpine moorland and cascading waterfalls. It’s a place of serenity and great short walks – and there are plenty on the agenda.

      60 minutes here

    2. Russell Falls

      We begin with the walk to Russell Falls which is easily Tasmania’s most recognisable waterfall with its 3-tiered drop. It is an easy and enjoyable walk along a beautiful forest track among mixed forest and temperate rainforest species. This is Tassie’s most photographed waterfall, and we soak up the awesome view before continuing our walk.

      45 minutes here · Admission included

    3. Horseshoe Falls

      Just beyond Russell Falls we climb the stairs to Horseshoe Falls, a majestic waterfall snuggled in the forest, which some regard as even more impressive than Russell Falls!

      30 minutes here · Admission included

    4. Tall Trees Walk

      We continue along the Three Falls Circuit and enter the section known as the Tall Trees Track. High above us stand the giant Swamp Gums around 80 metres tall, the world's tallest flowering plant. We enjoy our lunch break in one of the many beautiful picnic settings of the National Park.

      60 minutes here · Admission included

    5. Lady Barron Falls

      For the keen hikers continue along the full Three Waterfalls Trail and tick off the final waterfall - Lady Baron Falls.

      60 minutes here · Admission not included

    6. Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary

      Next up is Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary where you’ll meet all kinds of native wildlife. Learn about Tasmania’s rare and precious fauna during an informative wildlife tour conducted by the expert staff at Bonorong.

      90 minutes here · Admission included

    7. Mount Wellington

      We take a drive from Bonorong which takes about 60 minutes. We arrive at the summit of Mt Wellington standing proud behind Hobart at 1271 metres above sea level. We enjoy 30 minutes on top of the world. If your eyes aren’t watering from the icy air, they will be from the sweeping views. See the entire city, surrounding mountains and Derwent river system sparkling at your feet. We return to Hobart at around 5:30pm

    Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hobart.

    How much does Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $135 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hobart usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hobart is not rushed.

    Is Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 32 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hobart, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour?

    +

    Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hobart can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hobart and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hobart within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hobart?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hobart experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include kunanyi/Mt Wellington Explorer Bus- Return Tour (2.5 hours), Full-Day Guided Bruny Island Tour from Hobart, Day Tour in Mt. Field, Mt. Wellington, Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary and Richmond. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hobart?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hobart?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour?

    +

    Included: Professional guides, Guided walks; Wildlife Park entrance fee; Small groups, maximum 15 guests; and National Park entrance fee. Not included: Lunch; and Children under 8 years. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour?

    +

    Our General Meet Point is the Tasmanian Travel & Information Centre at 20 Davey Street. The pickup time is 7:25am, be ready at 7:20am. The tour returns to this same location around 5.30pm. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Hobart: Waterfalls, Wilderness & Wildlife - Active Day Tour if the weather is bad?

    +
