Hobart - capital of Australia's favourite state for bushwalking - and its environs boast a huge range of beautiful environments, making the region perfect for exploring on foot. Hobart's Best Walks (previously Hobart's Best Bush, Coast & City Walks), part of Woodslane's hugely successful walking guides series, introduces the best walks for visitors and residents alike, ranging from historic urban strolls to the more rugged tracks deep in the local bush. Detailed descriptions and maps help the reader explore the region's parks, bushland, hills, coastal and river areas and its most interesting urban areas. As with other titles in the series, the book is richly illustrated with over 200 full-colour photographs and dozens of detailed maps. A summary table of walks indicating distances, facilities and highlights is included to help the reader find exactly the right walk for the occasion. This thoroughly revised and expanded new edition includes seven new walks and a whole new chapter, North of Hobart.
