Overview

Nestled in Tasmania’s North West, Black River is a tiny rural locality within the Circular Head council, set 46 km north‑west of Wynyard. Bordered to the north by Bass Strait and to the west by the eponymous Black River, the community’s 2016 census counted just 35 residents, offering a tranquil lifestyle surrounded by coastal and river scenery.

Transport is straightforward: the C225 Mawbanna Road meets the Bass Highway right in the locality before heading southeast toward Mawbanna, providing easy road links to larger centres. With its modest population, housing is primarily rural, and residents typically travel to nearby Wynyard for shopping, schooling and other amenities. The area is also linked to its history, having carried the name Black River since about 1878.
