Cascades Track
Cascades Track provides a link to the network of tracks and fire trails in Wellington Park but it is also a good option for a walk in the bush close to the city, with or without your dog.
The vegetation along this track is quite diverse from open forest to fern-filled gullies. Keep your eyes open for wildlife, there are numerous wallaby runways that cross the track. A lovely arched stone bridge has been built at the first creek crossing to commemorate Peter Degraves, the founder of Cascade Brewery.

REVIEWS:
“Hobart Rivulet Park is a great spot, running through the city it’s a narrow band of nature that provides a home for heaps of life from ducks to platypus to wallaby’s and more. Keep your dogs on a lead please and don’t forget to take your rubbish with you.” – John Stanfield
Waterworks Reserve
Waterworks Reserve was first constructed in the 1860s, it captures the flow of creeks and rivers rising on the higher slopes of Mt Wellington.

For the energetic, walking tracks wander around the reservoirs and up into the bush land of Ridgeway towards the water’s mountain source.

REVIEWS:
“Perfect place for picnic, bbq with friends and family. This place often booked out so better make a reservation through council and let them know which site number you like to book. Personally i love site 3, enough for 10-20 people, also there is a pond in front if it.” – Jefri Yang
