Beneath Hobart’s tidy streets and sandstone cottages, restless echoes linger—ghosts of rebellion, invention, and secrets hiding in plain sight. Here, every weathered brick has witnessed the wild heart beneath Tasmania’s calm surface.

Uncover these shadows on a self-guided audio tour where you’ll slip past tourist crowds and uncover hidden stories woven through Battery Point, the lively pulse of Edge Radio, and the hushed halls of Queen Alexandra Hospital.

What was smuggled through Battery Point under cover of fog that changed Tasmania’s future overnight? Which strange broadcast from Edge Radio left authorities scrambling for explanations? Who vanished from Queen Alexandra Hospital without leaving so much as a footprint?

Trace historic routes with the rush of sea air, whispers of intrigue rising from cobbled lanes and hospital wards. Every corner promises drama, wonder, and glimpses behind closed doors.

Press play and discover what history tried to keep secret.
