Mt. Field National Park

RUSSELL FALLS, MT. FIELD NATIONAL PARK

Mt. Field is tagged to be one of Tasmania’s most loved national parks. The park has a wide variety of scenic features and wildlife. It offers a great range of facilities for day visitors. Few other national parks in Australia offer such diversity in vegetation, ranging from tall swamp gum forests and massive tree ferns at the base of the mountain, through rainforest along the Lake Dobson Road, to Alpine vegetation at the higher elevations.

Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens

The Royal Botanical Gardens in Hobart is well renowned by its unique collection of Tasmanian plants and tree species. You can just simply bring along a picnic basket and mat while enjoying the exquisite landscape and views. My partner and I went there in early summer and thank goodness most of the flowers bloomed, including the magnificent magnolia. Apart from the plant species, I was also able to spot beautiful bird species and wild rabbits lurking in the bushes. I took the chance to take as many photos as I can.
