Boronia Beach Track is a 2km, grade 3 hike located in Blackmans Bay, Tasmania. The hike should take around 1.25 hours to complete.
Hike overview
Descending through the bushland past the cypress pines, to the clear blue secluded waters of Boronia Beach feels like you've stumbled into the Mediterranean. The historic private residence behind the beach is 'Boronia', which was once the Boronia Hotel (circa 1900). It was popular in the days when the old ferry docked at the jetty at Kingston Beach bringing day-trippers from Hobart. Folk would visit the hotel for a cup of tea and wander through its terraced rhododendron gardens down to Boronia Beach.

About the region
Blackmans Bay is a beachside suburb of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. Blackmans Bay south of Hobart was named after a James Blackman who occupied land there in the 1820s while another "Blackman Bay", near Dunalley (also in Tasmania) was so named in 1642 because of the presence of Aboriginal people. The town is located adjacent to Kingston, and is approximately fourteen kilometres south of Hobart.
