Map of New Norfolk
New Norfolk is just a half an hour drive from Hobart CBD via A10 or B10, you can choose your route depending on which side of the river you want to go through.
It is a well-preserved heritage town with many older houses and some interesting history. Surrounded by hills and set along the River Derwent, it is quite picturesque. Autumn in New Norfolk can be spectacular with leaves from the many deciduous trees turning yellow, orange and red.
