Information

Located between Hobart and the Huon Valley, Snug is a great jumping-off point for exploring southern Tasmania. Whilst the main attraction of Snug is its coastline, which stretches from the mouth of the Snug River around the headland to Snug Baby, its just a short drive to the Bruny Island ferry, the Huon Valley and the hikes around the southwest. But because Snug is before the mountains, if you stay there, you don’t run the risk of getting stuck if roads are closed.
While Snug is only a very small town, it has everything you need including an IGA for grocery shopping and several places to eat. It also has some natural attractions including Snug Falls and Snug Beach.
The beach here is calm, and therefore friendly to dogs and kids. In summer the temperature reaches the 20s and rarely drops below zero in winter and has no snow. It is warm enough for water activities in summer.
The Snug River Track follows the river for 2.5km out and back trail. The Coningham Clifftop Walk follows the headland to Snug point and the Nature Recreation Area.
