Summary
Weather for Glenorchy

Pleasantly situated on the west bank of the Derwent River and a mere 10 kilometres North of Hobart lies the adjoining township of Glenorchy. Some sources identify Glenorchy as a suburb, while others describe it as a satellite city. Despite the confusion in classification Glenorchy is Tasmania’s fourth largest 'city' with a population of about 43,000 and makes an ideal base for many local activities.

Originally associated with agriculture and horticulture Glenorchy is now mainly noted for its industry as well as the Royal Hobart Showgrounds, the Tasmanian Transport Museum and Wellington park.

The Park covers 18 000 hectares and features some of the State's most prominent mountain ranges such as Sleeping Beauty, Collins Cap and Collins Bonnet, as well as Mount Wellington. The park has a maze of tracks and is well equipped with picnic and barbecue facilities. Visit here to witness the towering crags, awe-inspiring views, or cycle one of Australia’s most challenging and exciting alpine rides.
