Overview

Derwent Park is a residential suburb of Hobart located about 2 km east of Glenorchy in the Glenorchy local government area. The 2021 Census recorded a population of 872, and the area blends homes with a predominately light commercial and industrial landscape that houses long‑standing manufacturers and the nearby shipbuilder Incat. This mix gives residents easy access to local employment while retaining a suburb feel.

Families benefit from close‑by schools such as Tasmanian eSchool and Moonah Primary, while green spaces like Benjafield, Apex and Rugby Parks provide recreation along the River Derwent and Prince of Wales Bay shoreline. National Route 1 (Brooker Highway) runs directly through the suburb, linking it quickly to Hobart and surrounding districts. Nearby attractions include the Royal Hobart Showground and former drive‑in cinemas, adding cultural options within a short distance.
