4.5 Bruny Island Quarantine Station (40 reviews)
- Quarantine history unbelievable
Wednesday: Spent 2-3 hours State Parks

The Heritage Interpretive Walk enhances any visit to this beautiful peninsula with the varied history of the site well explained and directional signs in place. The full walk will take you from the Nuenonne people's sign to the site of the first European settlers cottage and the Shelter Cove stone jetty site. From there the walk takes you past the site of quarantine buildings where saloon and steerage passengers were lodged to the hospital area where some buildings still stand. Further on past the campsites where soldiers were quarantined on their return from WWI the trail takes you to the site of the Quarantine Bay jetty then up through the bush to the 1919 graves of influenza victims and the remains of an old chimney thought to have been constructed by German prisoners of war who, while detained at the Quarantine Station, cut firewood for Hobart. The walk continues past some fenced areas that were used for growing crops during the plant quarantine period, past the plant quarantine glass houses and back to the car park in the barley paddock. The whole walk takes about 2 hours unless of course you are delayed by photographing the wild flowers, including orchids, or bird watching or just enjoying the environment. A one hour option excludes the graves and chimney or you can just enjoy a short stroll and make use of our picnic tables. Open 5 days a week Thursday - Monday (Closed Tue/Wed)from 10 am to 4 pm Closed Christmas Day See more..

4.5 Echo Sugarloaf State Reserve (5 reviews)
- Loop is open
State Parks • Nature & Wildlife Areas • Hiking Trails

The loop is now open! We enjoyed doing a circuit - went up the older track and came back by the newer track. It gives a great view of the bay. Just be cautious at the top where the stone walkway is - we almost trod on a snake to the side of the track. He moved away fast under the rocks that form the path. Not a reason not to do the walk, but just a word of caution... See more..
3.0 Beaconsfield Skate Park (1 review)

While this skatepark has a bit of sad history where a young lad died in 2015 ... I think that places like this need to exist. Sadly the young man wasn't wearing a helmet. Young men and women need somewhere to push their limits a little ... and this is one of those places. I think that it being near the war memorials is great as well because there is a chance for old and young to mix... the young can learn something about the history of the country and the older generation can see what young people can do on wheels.
