After a short drive, a private local produce tasting will await us at the Coal River Farm. We will then head back to Hobart passing a scenic city lookout.

&nbsp;

The historic village of Richmond&nbsp; 
Visit Richmond and learn all about its captivating history. The village is situated in the heart of the Coal River Valley. It used to serve as an important military staging post and convict station linking Hobart with Port Arthur. Richmond is famous for its elegant Georgian architecture. Its beautiful heritage buildings date back as early as the 1820s and are now housing galleries, tea shops, craft boutiques and museums.

 
Richmond Bridge&nbsp; 
The Richmond Bridge is a heritage listed arch bridge. It is located on the B31 (&quot;Convict Trail&quot;) in the village of Richmond, 25 kilometres (15.5 miles) north of Hobart. It is the oldest Australian bridge that is still in use and the oldest stone span bridge in Australia. In 2005, this outstanding historical place was added to the Australian National Heritage List.

 
Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary&nbsp; 
Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary boasts koalas, wombats, quolls, birds, and amazing native wildlife. The sanctuary is also home to the iconic Tasmanian devil and over 80 free-roaming kangaroos that you can pet and hand-feed.&nbsp;

 
Coal River Farm&nbsp; 
Coal River Farm is all about growing and creating things that people enjoy eating. It is a family-run business that combines growing, creating and sharing the fruits of their labour with anyone that cares about where their food comes from. When you visit the farm there is always something good to pick, taste or learn. See how cheese, chocolate and produce are made before your own eyes. Who knows, maybe you will be asked to taste test their latest creation. A treat for your taste buds!
