Shires of Myrtle Forest is a heavy horse stud located at Myrtle Forest on the back of Mount Wellington, just outside Hobart. We are a highland mountain property in the cool temperature rainforest just 15 minutes from the outskirts of Hobart We have a beautiful year round creek, resident heavy horses and great walking tracks. We are located a few hundred metres from the Myrtle Forest walk and waterfall. We have unpowered sites located on the forest fringe, each with a firepit. We have firewood available so you can sit and enjoy the cool mountain evenings around the roaring fire. We have lovely rainforest to explore where wildlife abounds... wallabies, potoroos, wombats, bandicoots and Eastern quoll. Visitors must be self-contained. Dogs not permitted. In summer we have balmy days with views of Mount Wellington and in winter we often have snow to play in. Our resident horses love attention and a few carrots :) we breed shire horse and Freyja our resident drum horse loves a pat. Facilitated Daily walks available by appt.
