Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens

Tourism Tasmania

The Royal Tasmanian Botanical Garden is a 14-hectare cool-climate garden on the edge of the city. A quick 6 mintue drive from Best Western hotel in Hobart’s CBD.

First laid out in 1818, it boasts several collections including Australia’s only subantarctic plant house and a delightful Japanese Garden.

Entry is free. Visitors can enjoy a guided 50-minute walking tour that departs each day at 11am or pick up a map from the Visitor Hub located at the main gate to explore at leisure. The Succulent Restaurant serves great food

Things to do:

  • Succulent Restaurant and Sprout Café are perfect to get some food with a view
  • Gatekeepers Cottage
  • Lily Pond
  • Tasmanian Native Plant Collection and Fernery
  • Anniversary Arch
  • Conservatory
  • Subanarctic Plant House

If you’re looking for more ideas on what to do while in Hobart, the MONA is only a 20 minute drive north of the city.

Or, if you’re lucky enough to be in Hobart at the end of December, head to Kings Pier Marina to see the boats from the Sydney to Hobart yacht race.6
