Smithton

Tucked along the Duck River near Tasmania’s north-west coast, Smithton is a place whose character is shaped by the fertile lowlands and cool maritime weather of the Circular Head district. The river reaches Bass Strait near town, while productive farming country extends inland across pastureland. Smithton is the principal service centre for Circular Head, a region closely associated with dairy and beef production as well as forestry. Its compact centre reflects this working rural role, serving nearby farms and coastal communities. Stanley and its volcanic plug, The Nut, stand on the same Bass Strait coast and provide a defining landmark for the wider district.
