Overview

Risdon Vale sits on the eastern shore of the River Derwent, just outside Hobart, and is bordered by scrub‑laden bushland that offers a semi‑rural feel yet lies only minutes from the city via the East Derwent Highway. Development began in the early 1960s with a handful of subdivisions south of Gardenia Road and around Waratah Road, and the suburb now accommodates roughly 3,000 residents in a mix of post‑war homes and newer builds. Residents enjoy easy access to Risdon Brook Park and Dam, a 4 km walking track with views of Mount Wellington, while nearby natural features such as Basin Hills, Eagle Hill and Sugarloaf Hill add to the outdoor appeal.
