Overview

Carlton River is a peaceful rural locality within the Sorell council, set about 45 kilometres east of Hobart. The community nestles alongside the southern edge of Flinders Channel, with the gently winding Carlton River threading through the area from north‑east to south‑west. Surrounded by nearby natural landmarks such as Wykeholm Hill and Steeles Hill, the setting offers residents a relaxed, nature‑focused lifestyle while still being within easy reach of the capital’s amenities.

Access to Carlton River is straightforward via the Arthur Highway, with the C349 (Sugarloaf Road) branching southward toward Primrose Sands and the C334 (Carlton River Road) crossing the locality west‑to‑east. The small population of 265 (2016 Census) enjoys a mix of rural‑style homes, benefiting from the quiet countryside ambience and convenient road links to surrounding towns and recreational spots like Connellys Bay.
