This short loop walk is a great option on a hot summer's day, offering a shady forest with towering tree ferns, moss-covered rocks, and a small waterfall. Following the Fern Glade track upstream, you'll be surrounded by lush green vegetation and the soothing sound of running water.

You can start the walk from the Fern Tree township or the Fern Glade car park, which offers more parking spaces. Accessible by bus or car, the suburb of Fern Tree in Hobart serves as a convenient starting point.
