Overview

Hamilton is a rural locality in Tasmania’s Central Highlands, situated about 73 km north‑west of Hobart. The River Derwent forms its south‑western edge while the Clyde River runs through the centre, offering pleasant waterways alongside an oceanic climate of mild, dry summers and cool, sometimes snowy winters. The town retains a historic charm with a handful of small shops, a courthouse and numerous heritage buildings dating back to convict times, including St Peter’s Church, the Glen Clyde Hotel and a collection of 19th‑century cottages.

Road links are strong: the Lyell Highway (A10) traverses Hamilton east‑west, while Hollow Tree Road (B110) and Thousand Acre Lane (C182) provide additional access to surrounding areas. The housing stock reflects its frontier past, featuring a mix of historic cottages such as Kelleher’s Cottage and the Hamilton Inn, alongside modest newer homes, offering a blend of character and convenience for residents.
