When it comes to a weekend away, the Huon Valley is ripe for the picking. With picturesque rolling peaks, the meandering Huon River, sprawling orchards, award-winning wineries and restaurants all a handy 30 minute drive south from Hobart, it’s a great spot for families, couples and mates alike.

Local institution, tourist’s delight, and champion of small producers, nipulana/Hobart’s Sunbear is a warm hug dressed up as an inner-city café.
