Seven Mile Beach Public Reserve
Take the Tasman Hwy (A3) about 15 km east of Hobart.
The turnoff to Seven Mile Beach is clearly signposted.
The close proximity of this reserve to Hobart
makes it a popular beach for visitors, with
numerous day use areas. Number One has unsheltered
tables and a lawn area suitable for picnicking.
The adjacent toilet and shower block has accessible
facilities, although wheelchair users may require
assistance with the sandy path from the carpark.
The 5 Mile Beach day use area has accessible
toilets, a playground and a picnic area with
tables and sheltered BBQs. Wheelchair users
may require assistance moving around the picnic
area due to the sandy ground. Although the walking track from the
picnic area is sandy and not accessible to wheelchair users, there is a
large, fl at, grassed area adjacent to the carpark which is suitable for a
variety of activities.
