New Norfolk is just a thirty minute drive from Hobart, but the rolling green countryside of
the Derwent Valley that it is situated in makes it feel like you are in a different world.
Ideally you can base yourself in the town, and from there explore the valley and the
other picturesque hamlets that lie nearby. There are plenty of accommodation options
for you and your camper van in New Norfolk and nearby, and the friendly locals will
make you feel like you are still at home.
Essentially a historic town, New Norfolk is home to a number of beautifully preserved
heritage buldings. The Anglican Church of St. Matthews was built in 1823, and is the
oldest of its kind in Australia. Its intricate stained glass illustrations have fascinated
tourists for decades now. Tourists are also intrigued by the Oast House, which was a
working Oast House from 1867 to 1969. It is now a museum and a gift shop, and a
family run tea room offers you the chance to refresh yourself before continuing on your
way.
For a memorable experience with nature, take the short drive to Mt. Field National
Park. Here the trees and ferns seem to grow taller than anywhere else, and the lush
vegetation and moss covered floors create a mystical and enchanting feel. Be sure to
visit some of the many waterfalls in the park, and enjoy watching the trout swim lazily
in the cold creek below them.
