1 h 15 min to 2 h 15 min
Starting from the car park off Molle Street, Hobart, this walk takes you to Cascade Gardens and back via the Hobart Rivulet Track, visiting the world-heritage-listed Female Factory along the way. The history of the city can be seen as you follow the rivulet upstream. The aforementioned Female Factory, for example, was the place where the female prisoners were kept with their kids. A couple of hundred metres upstream from the end lies the Cascade Brewery, the oldest continuously working brewery in Australia. The Cascade Gardens at the end has a playground, BBQs, a water tap and a toilet. Dogs are allowed on leash. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
