The Huon Trail

external image cygnet-seven-inch-beach.jpg
external image 2367139.jpg
The ‘Huon Trail’ begins south of Hobart. It takes you through the Huon Valley, D’Entrecasteaux Channel & Bruny Island – a region of waterways & wilderness; art, craft & heritage; apple blossom and vineyards; farmers, foresters and fishermen.
  • Follow the Huon Trail stopping at the sign posts along the way. Look for the sea eagle and the hand-carved celery top pine-framed signs at 24 locations in the region.
  • If you want to ride wild rivers, meander through peaceful countryside, climb tall mountains in untamed forests, wander deserted and pristine beaches, sail sheltered waterways, partake of fine food and wines, browse in quaint crafts antiques and art shops or just relax and enjoy the stunning scenery, the friendly locals are waiting to share it with you. Come and visit the Huon Trail.

No trip to Hobart and Southern Tasmania is complete without a drive along the Huon Trail.
  • The Huon Valley and the coasts of Port Huon and the D'Entrecasteaux Channel are places of natural beauty, perfect for a relaxing holiday, a short break or even a day trip from Hobart. 
  • Rich in maritime and rural heritage and populated friendly creative people, the region is known as much for its gorgeous scenery as it huon pine, apple orchards and boutique wineries and gourmet specialities. 
  • By big city standards, the roads are always quiet and there is something different around every corner.
Take in the the fruit growing district of the Huon River valley, Port Huon, Bruny Island and the vast expanse 
of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel.

Geeveston is nestled in the lower reaches of the scenic Huon Valley.
  • It has a strong apple growing and forestry heritage and today caters for travellers exploring the nearby forests, Hartz Mountains National Park, and Picton and Huon rivers.
  • Surrounded by rolling hills and the nearby mountains of the Hartz Mountains National Park, Geeveston has a range of shops, eateries and local attractions and a main street full of hand-carved timber sculptures of famous locals.
Apple orchards grow in the lush green valleys nearby and during autumn visitors can buy buckets of Pink Lady, Crofton, Red Delicious, Granny Smith and Fuji apples from roadside stalls.

History of Geeveston

In 1849 William Geeves settled the site of Geeveston. The early years proved a struggle, dense bush a barrier to settlement
  • The construction of the Speedwell timber mill in 1871 and the Huon Timber Company Mill in 1902 provided Geeveston with an industrial base, the Timber Workers Union ensuring that workers were well organised.
  • Following a violent strike in 1921–22 the Company closed its Geeveston mill in 1925 and Geeveston suffered population loss, but the start of banking (1926) and arrival of electricity (1928) assisted slow but steady progress, based on apples and timber.

Britain's entry into the European Common Market curtailed apple exports, and in 1991 the Whale Point wood-pulp pellet site closed, but the opening of a branch of the Bendigo Bank, and a major tourist attraction, the Tahune Airwalk (2001), brought new optimism.
  • There's also a creative community of artists and makers who sell their wares on the main street and at a regular market.
  • Geeveston is a 1-hr drive (60 km) south of Hobart.[1]
  • The main Hobart to Huonville road was not opened until 1855 and the road to Geeveston and Dover was built abound 1883. Prior to that time the main mode of transport was by sea.

Forestry Tasmania (Geeveston) estimate that 30,000 people now visit Arve Loop Road annually to witness the effects of logging and regeneration in a working forest.
  • This place has been identified and assessed in the context of the Tasmanian Comprehensive Regional Assessment/Regional Forest Agreement (RFA) process. The national estate values identified in this RFA region are described in the Tasmanian national estate report (PLUC 1997) and its accompanying maps.
  • Forestry Tasmania (Geeveston) estimate that 30,000 people now visit Arve Loop Road annually to witness the effects of logging and regeneration in a working forest.
The Arve Road is the main road to get from Geeveston to Tahune AirWalk. It is sealed, but there are small patches of gravel where the road is being repaired, so drive cautiously.
  • It is recommended by Forestry Tasmania (who manages this area) that you are always mindful because the road is primarily used by forestry-related vehicles, and log trucks. Also depending on the time of day, traffic to and from Tahune can be quite busy.
  • Scattered along the Arve Road are many great nature walks and lookouts, and it is an excellent way to start or finish a trip to the Tahune AirWalk; or as a separate day exploring.
  • The Arve Road is great for short walks, and really gives you an insight into the history of the forest with minimal effort. Walks along this road range from a short stroll, to 40 minutes return.
    • The Look-in Lookout is probably the best place to start. Further along the track is the Lookoutitself, which has a map of all the different walks/lookouts along the Arve Road, and also some stories about the history of the surrounding forest from those who have worked in them.
    • The next stop is Keogh’s Creek.
    • The Big Tree Lookout, and the word big really cannot describe the size of this tree.
    • The West Creek Lookout.
    • The Zig Zag track. The track has been named ‘the Zig Zag track’ because it does quite that; following an old packhorse trail, through forest which hasn’t been logged. This track is less developed than the others but is still worth the effort. Here the trees have some damage and many are rotting due to strong winds that occurred some years ago.

The Hartz Track has been associated with several important phases in Tasmania's development. It was cut to stimulate and facilitate the mineral exploration of central and western Tasmania.
  • It then became an access route for the growing recreational use of the Hartz Mountains, at a period when recreational tourism was becoming an important component of Tasmania's economy. (Criterion A4).
The Hartz track is intact to an uncommon extent, in that a number of tracks with a similar history have been upgraded as roads or otherwise substantially altered over time.
  • The track appears to have retained its original alignment, width and formation, especially in the lower sections, and is hence a good example of foot tracks of period. (Criteria B2 & D2)
Hartz Track, Kermandie Kalls and Picnic Area is significant as a forest place of aesthetic value, important to a community for aesthetic characteristics held in high esteem or otherwise valued by the community (Criterion E.1). The Hartz Track is valued for its spectacular mountain peaks, glacial lakes, landforms and tall forests.
  • This place is important as a forest place of social value, being highly valued by a community for reasons of religious, spiritual, cultural, educational, or social associations. (Criterion G.1)
  • The Geeveston and Cygnet communities have had a long and continuous association with the Hartz Track, having used it for many years to access the mountains.
  • The Track is a highly valued symbol of the past for local people and the Kermandie Falls is valued as a meeting place by them.
  • Indicative Place on the Register of the Naional Estate

  • The timber industry is a major Tasmanian industry and has been operating since the early nineteenth century.
  • The introduction of steam technology from the 1970s led to new technologies, including log haulers and the associated tramways and log haulers. This form of operation included housing or sheltering workers in remote locations. (Criterion A.4, D.2)
The Harveys Creek Spur Huts are uncommon surviving and relatively good examples of timber workers huts associated with this major phase of timber harvesting. While such huts must have been common, very few have been identified and of those the Harveys Creek Spur Huts appear to be in better condition and display a higher level of integrity. (Criterion B.2)
  • The area around the huts includes a log landing and tram line which form an associated complex of sites and provides the historic context for the huts. (Criteria A4, B2 and D2). The log hauler sub-complex is a good and intact example of a timber log hauler site, the most intact such site in the Southern Forests (Criteria A.4 and D.2).
  • Indicative Place on the Register of the Naional Estate

Originally built by the Geeves Family in the 1800s, the grand historical residence of Hillcrest is as old as the township itself.
  • Being a residence of prominence in Geeveston for many years, Hillcrest has served many purposes.
  • From humble beginnings as four-room cottage for the timber mill manager, the present day residence was built in the late 1800s as a guest house.
  • Hillcrest has since been used to host local community meetings, such as the inaugural Geeveston CWA, and the staging location for many rescue missions for walkers lost on Hartz Mountain.
  • Since the mid 1900s and continuing on today, Hillcrest is being used a private residence.

Huonville
Huonville is a town on the Huon River, in the south-east of TasmaniaAustralia. It is the seat of the Huon Valley Council area and lies 38 km south of Hobart on the Huon Highway. At the 2006 census, Huonville had a population of 1,806 and at the 2011 census had a population of 1,741.Wikipedia

The first Europeans to set eyes on the Huon River were the crew commanded by Admiral Bruni d'Entrecasteaux. The river was named by him in honour of his second in command, Captain Huon de Kermadec. The name is preserved today in many features: the town, the river, the district and so on. The first European settlers were William and Thomas Walton in 1840.

Huonville was not originally intended as the site of a town. Nearby Ranelagh was laid out as the town of Victoria in colonial days. Huonville grew around the bridge crossing the Huon River and hotels at the bridge. It was officially declared a town in 1891.[3]


Today the Huon Valley is best known as one of Tasmania's primary apple growing areas. Once enormous in its extent, the significance of the industry has declined steadily since the 1950s and today cherries and fish farming are the rising commercial stars of the district.

Most of the Egg Islands are in a natural or near-natural condition and incorporate significant nature conservation values. Important wetland and rushland vegetation communities occupy much of the southern part of the islands. In addition to this, the northern sections of the islands support rare and endangered Eucalyptus ovataforest and woodland, being the largest remnant in south-east Tasmania.
  • The relatively intact vegetation communities of the islands comprise valuable habitat for a range of fauna, especially waterbirds. There is evidence that the Egg Islands provide habitat for seven threatened or significant bird species, one threatened fish, one threatened amphibian and two threatened invertebrates.

The Egg Islands are a relatively recent landform having been created by the accumulation of fine sediment in the lower reaches of the Huon River.
  • They are considered to be the most important and least disturbed of this class of estuarine depositional landform in Tasmania, and they are still growing with expansion of the mud flats in the south.
  • Even though they are now in a largely natural condition, the Egg Islands cannot be considered an untouched wilderness. Indeed, they have played an important part in the history and development of the Huon Valley.
  • While there is no known evidence of Aboriginal occupation, the islands would almost certainly have provided a food source, principally swan eggs, for the local indigenous people.
  • Since the early days of European settlement the islands were used for various forms of primary production and recreation including stock grazing, orchards, vegetable growing, timber harvesting, duck hunting and greyhound training.
  • Little evidence of this use remains on the islands today, with the most significant heritage feature being a canal across the south island, first built by convicts in 1838.

Heritage Listed in 1999. This building is of historic heritage significance because of its potential to demonstrate the principal characteristics of a single storey weatherboard Federation domestic building.
Description: It is a single storey weatherboard building with hipped and gabled roof forms, half-timbered detailing in the gable end, a bay window and enclosed verandah.
  • ARCHITECTURAL STYLE:- Federation domestic
  • Tasmanian Heritage Register #3554
  • Below are extensive notes from Roderick Ewins. former owner, now a resident of White Ridge, towards Port Arthur. (2016)
The LandThe original land grant was to Eliza Walton, famous as the girl who rowed people across the Huon at a point near Ironstone Creek, in the days when there was no bridge and the road stopped at Huonville. At some stage, though I was never able to discover when, she must have sold the land (again, we don’t know how MUCH land in all) to V.J. Skinner.The houseThe original house was built in the period between 1896 and 1900; we have not been able to establish the exact year though the Heritage Register lists it as 1900.

  • It was built as his home by V.J. Skinner, a man of some standing who owned various enterprises in the Huon valley, including sawmills, orchards, and a large apple drying works that stood on the bank of the Huon below the house, roughly where Websters now stands.
  • V.J's son the late Jim Skinner was for many years Warden of the Huon Municipality, and there are other descendants still living in the Valley.
  • V.J. also built the house opposite the drive of this house, now called "Walton", for one of his sons, and the small house opposite Scenic Hill Road (2711 Huon Hwy) that adjoins the property. We have been told that was built for someone that worked for Skinner.
BuilderThe desigher/builder of the Skinner house was J. Lomas, a skilled builder who was the inventor of the first apple grading machine, which he successfully marketed in the US and Europe, and an example of which is in the Huon Apple Museum situated on the highway leading into Huonville from Hobart.Mr Lomas designed and built several of the more prestigious homes in the area, including that which is now
  • the Huon Manor restaurant in Short Street (opposite the pub next to the bridge),
  • the Heron homestead in Coolstore Road, and
  • the house designed for his daughter Mrs Joe Kruse, until recently owned by Kerry Rattray, in 155 Main Road Huonville.

Renovation and Extensions
The house was the first in this part of Southbridge. An early photograph shows it standing in splendid isolation on the hillside — no houses in sight and Scenic Hill still treed and completely devoid of houses.

  • It was subsequently extended and modified in three identifiable stages.
  • Initially it was of a modest size, and had a twin-hipped roof, the frame of which is still inside the roof today — they merely extended the sides up to join in the present very high pitch. This was done during the 191?s, at which time the riverview rooms were added. This I was able to deduce from a complete break in the floor-bards, and also the fireplaces in those two rooms were located in what had been river-facing windows (the outlines of which were still visible in the original rooms).
  • The verandah was built at that time and extended around the north/northwest corner. It provided the main entry to the house. All access was still at that time from the river, access being gained up the hill to the sandstone/concrete steps on the west side of the house. One then walked around the verandah and into the front door which is still on the northern end. The road to Franklin had yet to be built, after which the main access to the house was reversed to the south end.
OwnersIn the 1930s the Skinners sold the house to Rance Heron, another local of some standing who had orchards, including some on the land that now fronts onto the Huon Highway, and all of the land below the house down to Coolstore Road. During the 1930s the Herons had further modifications done. These were undertaken by a brother of Joe Kruse (can’t remember his name) but unlike his grandfather he was not a trained or highly-skilled builder, and the workmanship in his extensions is noticeably inferior.

  • Several years after the death of Rance Heron and his wife, in 1972 the house was purchased from their two sons Bill and Don, by Roderick and Beverley Ewins. Rod was an artist and lecturer at the Tasmanian School of Art, University of Tasmania, and Bev Ewins was a librarian and senior administrator with the State Library of Tasmania.
  • Thus in its hundred plus life the house has had only three owners, each for over thirty years. It speaks to the fact that it is a beautiful home to live in, and generations of children have been fortunate to be raised in it.
