Hike Summary

The route of the Brickfields Track takes you through the historic remains of the brick-making area, part of the nearby and short lived 1840's convict probation station. The track is a mix of narrow bush track and timber boardwalk with some steps along the route and winds its way from the intersection of Taronga Rd and the Channel Highway to link with the Alum Cliffs track.

About the region

Bonnet Hill is a suburb of the greater Hobart area, capital of Tasmania, Australia on the hill of the same name, overlooking Kingston. Bonnet Hill is a popular cycling route. Located on it is the famous Shot Tower. The sides of the hill are riddled with small paths mostly leading to the nearby Kingston Beach.

Getting there

The Brickfields Track links between Taronga Rd (adjacent the Channel Highway) in Bonnet Hill and links to the Alum Cliffs Track. Access to the track is from either Taronga Rd or from Alum Cliffs Track. Metro run buses along the Channel Highway linking Hobart and Kingston.
