Take the Huon Highway out of Hobart and some 100 kilometres later you will have driven to the southern most settlement in Australia, aptly named Southport.
Along the way you pass through the small settlement of Huonville, administrative centre of the tranquil Huon Valley, a region appropriately famous for an array of food produce and an annual food festival. The food festival is one of the most popular regional events in Tasmania and as good fortune would have it, this year's two day festival was in full swing for the Bazflyers arrival. Entertainment, a huge variety of food stalls and thousands of happy people.
Detour off the meandering route that follows the Huon River on its way to the great southern ocean and you are quickly engulfed in a land of tall trees and swift rivers. This is Tasmanian forest country and where home to the Tahune Air Walk. An opportunity to walk among the forest tree tops at one of the most visited tourism attractions in Tasmania.
The road ends at Southport
