Western Wilds

It’s true what the locals say, ‘There’s the Derwent Valley you see for the day, then there’s the real Derwent Valley’. So, why not stay a while. Immerse yourself in the real Derwent Valley – where things are just that little bit brighter, taller, deeper, fresher, darker, sweeter, wilder and weirder. Find out why this part of the state may just be Tasmania’s best kept secret.

We know how lucky we have it in the Derwent Valley. Our land is home to some of Tasmania’s most passionate and caring primary producers. Not to mention, the produce is some of the most delicious in the world. We reckon it’s because things here are that little bit brighter, taller, deeper, fresher and sweeter in the Derwent Valley. From farmland, to vineyards and orchards – we have it in abundance here in ‘The Valley’. Here are 14 restaurants, cooking schools, orchards, wineries, distilleries and markets where you will find the best produce Tasmania has to offer.
