When is the best time to go to Ridgeway?

The best time to visit Ridgeway is during the warmer months, specifically from December to February, which is summer in Tasmania. During this period, you'll experience the longest daylight hours and the most pleasant temperatures, typically ranging from 17°C to 23°C. This makes it ideal for exploring the natural beauty around Ridgeway, such as walking trails in the nearby bushland or enjoying the views from Mount Wellington. It's also the great time for outdoor activities like visiting local vineyards or enjoying a picnic at a scenic spot. For those who prefer slightly cooler weather and fewer crowds, the shoulder seasons of autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November) also offer good conditions. Temperatures are milder, usually between 12°C and 18°C, and the landscape is often spectacular with autumn colours or spring blossoms.

Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Ridgeway hotel for you.

Hobart City Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"There are a lot of good restaurants within a short walk from the hotel. Grocery store is close by. There is a Chinese grocery store next door and they have ice cream. My room is very big with a little kitchen. There is laundry facilities at the basement. It costs AU$6.00 each for washing and drying."
