Overview

Christmas Hills is a quiet, rural locality nestled in Tasmania’s North‑west region, administered by the Circular Head council. Situated about 9 km south‑west of the regional centre of Smithton, it recorded a modest population of 115 residents at the 2016 census. The area’s name dates back to the 1820s, when pastoralist William Field christened the spot after a Christmas‑day lunch.

The Bass Highway (Route A2) cuts through the locality, providing straightforward road links to neighboring towns and the broader Tasmanian road network. Natural features such as the Duck River along the eastern fringe, the nearby Brittons Swamp and the rolling elevations of Red Hill and Brittons Hill give the community a scenic, low‑density residential feel, appealing to those who value a countryside lifestyle within easy reach of Smithton’s amenities.
