From Hobart city travel on the A9 highway to Sorell, then turn right towards Port Arthur. From Hobart International Airport exit the airport, turn right at the roundabout and proceed to Sorell and then on to Port Arthur, as above. Enjoy the country villages and scenery, travel through Eaglehawk Neck until you reach the Fox and Hounds Inn: we are at 6789 Arthur Highway; just look for the Fox and Hounds sign, and the distinctive two storey Tudor style architecture on the left hand side of the highway. We are only less than 5 minutes drive from the Port Arthur Historic Site.
