Nestled in the picturesque Derwent Valley, the Salmon Ponds is Australia's oldest trout hatchery, established in 1861. Visitors can explore historic hatcheries, observe various trout species, and feed fish up to 8 kilograms. The Museum of Trout Fishing, housed in a 1865 cottage, showcases the evolution of fishing equipment and Tasmania's angling history. The grounds feature 19th-century English-style gardens with mature trees and hedges. Amenities include the licensed café "Pancakes by the Ponds," picnic areas with BBQ facilities, and a gift shop.
