Knocklofty Reserve

Views were not as scenic as the Mount Stuart lookout but it was a great hike.

Forks are well marked with directions.

I saw lots of wallabies!!

I already made the trek up to the Mount Stuart lookout from the CBD so the extra 1.5km wasn't too bad! Much less steep than the CBD to Mount Stuart. There are some stone stairs on this trail.

There was one maybe questionable turn off with a bench, but there's nothing beyond the bench so it was obvious to go right (trail) instead of left (bench)

Signboards are only at forks in the trail. My first time up here (May 2022) n had to fall back on my trusty handphone app to move about. Good place to hike, catch some fresh air and see wild animals like lizards n wallabies. Location is ideal for folks coming from neighbouring areas like West Hobart, Lenah Valley, New Town and Moonah. Was the hike challenging? Depends on your fitness level but gradients are gentle to moderate and ideal for trail runners n cyclists.
Three days later, I am starting my hike from Poets Road n going to the summit using Glover Track and Southern Summit Fire Trail. Temperature 5C brrr... but should warm up soon enough.

Great spot for seeing wallabies and birds. I go there for some me time photographing the many species of bird life.

A terrific piece of bushland that connects to Mt Wellington. The loop walk gives you wonderful views of the mountain, the river, and the northern suburbs. Remember to keep your dogs on-leash unless you’re in the off-leash area to protect the native animals.

A beautiful place to spend your time, full of Australian wildlife and plants. Good for walking and seeing the views.

Awesome bushland right in the centre of Hobart, packed with walking and mountain biking trails. Knocklofty is also a great place to watch a sunrise or moonrise over Hobart.

Great place to take time out from Hobart city, parking available and lots of people using the area. Only downside is no public toilets and only 2 tables to sit and only 1 bin. Great vista of hobart.

This is always a great reserve I just wish it was a bit flatter 😉

15 minute ride from my house, good for any kind of exercise

Just beautiful 😍

Dry forest reserve, not far from the city. Summit circuit pumps up your cardio. Critters spotted - lizards, echidna, birds, wallabies. Walk up from the rivulet to give and extra boost; elevation change is equivalent to mt Fortescue.

Lovely bush, wondrous views. Great for dogs too:)

Excellent walking tracks and great that we can take our dog with us 👍👏

Fantastic place and location, right next to where a great big surprise is to be built!

This Reserve has some great walking tracks

A very beautiful place on the doorstep of the city

Great spot for a run

Great place for a walk
