Welcome to

the Huon Valley

The Huon Valley Council is the southernmost local government area in Australia. The main townships are Huonville, Franklin, Cygnet, Geeveston and Dover.
Town buildings with street signs in the foreground, backed by tall, forested mountains under a cloudy sky. The mountain peaks have patches of snow, and trees and lampposts line the streets.
