Hobart to Devonport Road Trip Guide (Tasmania – The Heartlands)

A complete, self-contained road trip itinerary for exploring Tasmania’s historic Heartlands.

This road trip guide is designed for travellers who want to experience Tasmania’s historic Heartlands, travelling inland between Hobart and Devonport rather than following the coastal routes.

Covering the journey through Tasmania’s Midlands, this itinerary takes you along the Heritage Highway and surrounding inland roads, passing through colonial towns, productive farmland, convict-era sites and some of the state’s most significant historic landmarks.

Inside, you’ll find a practical, easy-to-follow itinerary covering where to go, where to stay, what to see, and how to plan your days on the road—whether you’re travelling with kids, towing a caravan, or exploring in a motorhome or camper.

This is a standalone regional guide, not an excerpt. Everything you need to confidently plan and enjoy this inland Tasmania road trip is included.
