The seaside holiday town of Orford is located at the head of the Prosser
River, about 80 km north east of
Hobart, 7 km south of
Triabunna and across the
water from popular
Maria Island.
As well as the picturesque beaches in the region, other activities in Orford include
fishing, and walks along the coast and bushland. Visitors can also catch the
daily ferry from Triabunna to
Maria Island, a
national park with its
historic ruins, rugged cliffs and wildlife.
Another must see is Thumbs Lookout. From here you get an overview of the
forests of the Upper Florentine Valley and spectacular Thumbs Range.
