Tasmania's rich colonial past is all around you. When you get out and walk you'll see, discover and learn so much more. And yes, both Mark Twain and Charles Darwin explored Hobart.

As you travel around Tasmania you will find a range of historic walking tours designed to help you explore our cities, towns and country villages. Talk with any of our Tasmanian Visitor Information Centres for details.

Take a stroll along the quiet streets of Heritage Highway towns like Ross, Oatlands and Campbell Town, through the historic lanes of Battery Point, or in the Female Factories in South Hobart and Ross.

In our two major cities of Hobart and Launceston, you can see fine examples of 19^th and 20^th century architectural styles - Georgian, Regency, Victorian, Edwardian and Art Deco - and contemporary, of course.

In the far north-west corner, a walk down the one main street in the village of Stanley tells a story of fisher folk and Prime Ministers.
