Karkalla historic terrace - walk cafes

The Neighborhood

Karkalla is located in a quiet, tree-lined street right on the boundary of Battery Point. The Terrace has no dedicated car parking; however street parking is readily available. What to do nearby; - Stroll into the historic Battery point (via the roads or challenge yourself with a stair climb up the Nanny goat or Billy goat lanes), transporting you back in time with beautiful architecture and gardens. - There are so many incredible bakeries within a short walk – we recommend Jackman & Mc Ross in Battery Point, Sisterhood or Daci & Daci in Sandy Bay. - Walk into the world-famous Salamanca entertainment precinct for restaurants, bars, cafes, shops and the very popular Saturday morning markets. - A few steps more will take you to the Hobart marina where you can enjoy festivals like Taste, Winter MOFO or the finishing line of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race. The marina is also where you can grad delicious fish and chips (sometimes with cheeky seals) or catch a boat up the river or across the bay. - Head down to the Sandy Bay beach and marina where you can swim (if you're brave) or walk along the harbour past playgrounds and parks - Visit the university of Tasmania's huge campus with water views - Woolworths, Coles and Scoop are all located in the Sandy bay shopping strip, as well as local bakers, butchers, salons and boutique shopping. - Head up to Kunanyi (Mt Wellington) for rainforest bush walks, mountain biking, spectacular views and often snow! Be sure to stop in for a rainforest hike and hot drinks at Lost Freight, at the springs, as well as the Fern Tree nature playground, mountain bike tracks, pipeline walking paths and the Fern tree tavern - Drive out of town for day trips to beautiful places like the Huon Valley, Bruny Island, Richmond or Port Arthur.
