A rich tapestry of nature, culture and culinary delights
Straddling Emu Bay on Tasmania’s northern coastline,Burnie is a reinvented port city that has successfully transitioned from a mostly industrial settlement to a vibrant, creative hub with a relaxed lifestyle and plenty to explore.
After the town’s iconic paper pulp mill shut down, residents put Burnie on the map by celebrating dedicated craftsmanship in all its forms. You can see it for yourself at the Makers Workshop, a charming congregation of artisans who peddle their wares and are more than happy to talk about their craft. There’s paper making, ceramics, cheese tasting, glassblowers, textiles, painters, print makers, sculptors, painters and plenty more!
From a more general perspective, Burnie is a serene and peaceful town. It has a tranquil stretch of beach and plenty of shops to explore, not to mention an excellent selection of cafes and eateries.
If you want to delve into the history of Burnie as an industrial town, head to the Burnie Regional Museum and take a walk down a replica of Federation St to get a close look at the lifestyle of the town’s residents over a century ago.
Cheese lovers will be pleased to know that the town is known for producing award-winning cheeses, while whiskey connoisseurs simply must include a visit to the Hellyers Road Distillery. It’s the biggest boutique whiskey distillery in the country, and you’ll get the chance to sample some of it yourself! On the way, keep your eyes peeled for the beautiful Emu Valley Rhododendron Garden: 12 hectares of beautiful walks among tranquil surroundings.
Another surprising feature of Burnie that can’t be missed is the Penguin Observation Centre. From September to March, these little guys emerge from the water in huge numbers around dusk and waddle up the shore to nest in hundreds of charming little penguin homes handmade by volunteers.
