When we think of Tasmania, our minds often turn to the Bay of Fires, Freycinet National Park, or the snow-capped peaks of Cradle Mountain. But hidden in the south lies the lush Huon Valley — a region that helped Tasmania earn its nickname, the ‘Apple Isle’.
Just 30 minutes from Hobart, this peaceful retreat is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

Think of Huon Valley and you’ll picture award-winning wineries, breathtaking scenery, charming country towns, and sprawling orchards. It’s an ideal road trip destination, offering something new at every turn. The region is one of Australia’s fastest-growing foodie hotspots, thanks to its abundance of gourmet food and drink.
The valley is also home to breathtaking natural attractions like Hastings Caves Reserve and South Cape Bay — the southernmost point in Australia.
Beyond its natural beauty, the Huon Valley is deeply connected to Tasmania’s apple-growing heritage and vibrant local culture. Roadside fruit stalls, boutique distilleries, and cosy cider houses reflect the region’s blend of tradition and innovation — making it the perfect place to slow down and savour the flavours of the south.
For a local stay, there’s a convenient caravan park in Huonville. If you prefer to be closer to the water, Snug Beach Caravan Park is a great option. Alternatively, base yourself in nearby Hobart, with accommodation available at both Discovery Parks and BIG4 Holiday Park locations.
