Rosebery, a charming mining town in Tasmania, offers a variety of attractions for nature enthusiasts and history buffs. One of its biggest drawcards is Montezuma Falls, the highest waterfall in Tasmania, which can be reached via a 3-hour return hike from Williamsford, south of Rosebery. This easy rainforest trail, following the route of an old mining tramway, is also open to mountain bikes. Additionally, experienced mountain bike riders can explore the fern-framed Sterling Valley Track, known for its technical single track, which winds down Mount Murchison into Rosebery.
For history enthusiasts, Rosebery offers the Heritage Miners Cottage, the War Memorial & Memorial Garden, and the West Coast Heritage Centre in nearby Zeehan. The town's mining heritage is evident in its core industry, and visitors can spot the old aerial ore bucket ropeway, once used to transport ore from the nearby Hercules mine to Rosebery.
Surrounded by rainforest and dramatic peaks, Rosebery attracts bushwalkers and mountain bike riders keen to explore nearby natural wonders. The town is also home to the quirky Rosebery Golf Course, famous for its unusual uphill, dog-legged par 5 eighth hole.
