Lovely hosts, met us on arrival and gave us a run through on spots to camp at. Got a bit of background on their farm and the berries they grow, very friendly and helpful. Depending on where you camp it's a short stroll to access the creek which is great for kayaking all the way to the beach. Quiet and peaceful, hosts were available for any assistance we needed.

We ended up here after we had to leave another camping area! And wish that we had come here first! It was everything we needed! Very peacefull and quiet! Rod was great pointing us in the right direction! It was a perfect base for Bruny! Next door was a lovely garden that we explored too! Our site had just been freshly mowed! On a creek, we were able to have a firepot which was great!
Would reccomend rods hipcamp to anyone who is headed to Bruny! Thanks rod!

Eeyore’s Campsite was the perfect tranquil spot to celebrate our Christmas 2025. It was wild weather but the terrain and adjacent forest protected us very well from the strong winds.
We loved seeing the many furry critters busily mowing the grass and our friendly welcoming hosts couldn’t have been more helpful.
We would highly recommend this HipCamp to anyone wanting to enjoy a peaceful spot nestled in a lovely natural setting.

Great location to use as a base to explore Hobart and the area. You are literally on a small paddock alongside a fairly busy road with mostly grass and well maintained. The road traffic did ease off after 9pm but by 6.30am the trucks are back up and down the road. It’s a well used road. Fully fenced area so both kids and dogs are safe. Large trampoline for the kids and fire pits. Rob is a super host and very welcoming. Thanks for having us.

The best ranch camping near Hobart guide
Where to go
Tasman Peninsula
Cliffs, beaches, and sandy bays carve out the Tasman Peninsula landscape, just an hour’s drive southeast of Hobart. This is the place to escape city life—simple unpowered sites let you get even closer to bushwalking trails and remote beaches, and it’s even possible to camp right by the Port Arthur Historic Site, one of Tasmania’s top spots.
Wellington to Mount Field National Park
Looming on the horizon to the west, the mist-capped peak of Mount Wellington stands watch over Hobart and provides terrain for hikers, mountain bikers, and campers, just minutes from the CBD. A further 2-hour drive brings you to the mountains and waterfalls of Mount Field National Park, where riverfront camping areas offer access to hiking trails and fishing spots, and self-sufficient campers can escape to secluded bush campsites.
South Coast and Bruny Island
Coastal walks wind around the waterfront south of Hobart, where road-trippers can stop off at seafront towns such as Dover and Southport. Ferries to Bruny Island leave from Kettering, where you can spot seabirds as you cruise the coast, tuck into fresh-from-the-ocean oysters, and pitch a tent by remote beaches and bushlands.
When to go
The most popular time for camping and outdoor activities around Hobart is summer (December through February), when camping grounds book up quickly. Spring and autumn are also ideal for camping—head to the national parks around Hobart to hike against a backdrop of spring wildflowers or witness the ‘Turning of the Fagus’ (Tasmania’s fall foliage). Touring by caravan or campervan is preferable in winter (June through August), when rainy days and chilly nights are common.
Know before you go
- Tassie weather is notoriously changeable, so pack for all anything, even in summer.
- A National Parks pass is required to visit, hike, or camp within Tasmania’s national parks.
- Fire bans are common in Tasmania during summer and dry periods, so be sure to check local recommendations before lighting your campfire.
- Possums and Tasmanian devils are common around Hobart—always secure your food and anything else that might attract wildlife.
- Having your own car is a big plus around Hobart, as public transport is limited to the national parks and beaches.
