Halvdags kunanyi / Mt Wellington och Cascade Female Factory
Beskrivning
Det här är en prisvärd kombinationstur som visar vad staden Hobart är mest känd för - dess fascinerande straffångehistoria och dess enastående naturliga skönhet. Bevittna fina exempel på båda, samtidigt som du informeras och underhålls av våra erfarna lokala chaufförsguider. När du är klar med att utforska Cascades Female Factory kommer vår chaufför att ta dig tillbaka till vår utgångspunkt eller de som vill ta den (2 klm) natursköna promenaden tillbaka till staden längs Hobart Rivulet kan göra det i sin egen takt med hjälp av vår tryckta Guide. Håll utkik i vattenbrynet efter näbbdjuret som kallar niten hem.

Resplan
Bevittna den fantastiska utsikten över Hobart och omgivningarna från toppen på denna fullt guidade tur. Följ med på vår eskorterade korta rundtur i observatoriet på toppen och en självguidad tur till Western Wilderness Lookout för att se ett av de sista riktiga vildmarksområdena på planeten. På vår nedstigning från toppen kan du njuta av en kort lätt promenad runt de fantastiska utställningsträdgårdarna vid mittpunkten "The Springs" Det finns också tid att köpa en varm dryck.
Cascade Gardens är en av Hobarts klassiska trädgårdar som ligger mot stranden av Hobart River. Även hem till det ikoniska Cascade Brewery (Australiens äldsta fungerande bryggeri.) Ta dig tid att vandra genom trädgårdarna för att sedan förundras över den slående fasaden på Cascade Brewery. Ett fantastiskt fototillfälle.
En av Australiens mest betydelsefulla historiska platser för kvinnor, Female Factory var den kvinnliga motsvarigheten till Port Arthur och användes för att hålla både kvinnor och barn under hela 1820-talet. Vissa ruiner av den ursprungliga byggnaden och murarna finns fortfarande kvar. En minnesträdgård och ett museumsutrymme har byggts för att minnas dessa kvinnors tragiska liv. Vandra genom markerna och njut av galleriet och presentbutiken medan du lyssnar på den fascinerande historien genom ljudguiden.

Most informative. The experiences of female convicts were extremely harsh, inflicted by a patriarchal society with no intention to rehabilitate or cognition of human rights.
Thanks for your thoughtful feedback! We are pleased to hear you enjoyed our tour. The Female Factory really shows how tough life was for female convicts under a harsh system. It’s an eye‑opening place that helps us remember their stories.
Although the weather didn’t cooperate, Colin our driver found alternatives and we were able to enjoy a wonderful view from Mt Nelson. Very informative tour. Cascades female factory is A MUST. Our history should never be forgotten. Found the download commentary easy and interesting. Thanks again to our driver Colin who gave some personal history and perspective on the Women’s lives. Great morning tour.

Mt Nelson’s views are always a highlight, and we couldn’t agree more—the Cascades Female Factory is such an important part of our history.

Great experience and knowledge with out tour guide Rod ! Highly recommended. Beautiful scenery and so windy . It was a good day , do bring something warm .
Thanks so much for leaving us a review. Rod will be delighted with your comments. Great feedback regarding warm clothing too. It's always advisable!
The trip to Mt Wellington may be delayed even cancelled as it closes due to ice roads & the weather can be unpredictable. We had a beautiful Guide who made up for it taking us to other great lookouts. Cascade Female Factory- I would recommend a guided tour!! I had the app to listen during my visit. I still missed so much with many questions unanswered.
Hi Katrina, thanks so much for your review. Yes, unfortunately, we can't predict the weather on the mountain, so we do occasionally have to change the tour itinerary if the road is closed. It is great to hear your positive feedback for the tour that was provided to you. Thanks again
