Glenorchy is Tasmania’s fourth largest city. It is located on the western shore of the River Derwent below the imposing, Mount Wellington. Settled in 1804, Glenorchy was primarily an agricultural centre for the first 100 years of its settlement, until the zinc smelter at Lutana commenced operations and transformed Glenorchy into the industrial hub of southern Tasmania. For those passing through, the area offers plenty of scenic locations to go for a walk, from a foreshore stroll to challenging bushwalks in the foothills of Mount Wellington. There are also a wide variety of attractions to visit including ‘MONA’ - The Museum of Old and New Art - the largest privately funded museum in the southern hemisphere. Situated at 655 Main Road, Berriedale, it is one of the only Australian travel experiences that offer an internationally significant museum and art gallery, fine dining, wine bar, a vineyard, cellar door tastings and accommodation.Those visiting Glenorchy can find short and long-term parking at Royal Hobart Showground, 2 Howard Rd.
