Judbury is a rural area in the Huon Valley which is south west of Hobart in Tasmania. It was originally called Judds Creek in 1855 named after the earliest settler there John Cane Judd.

If visiting Hobart on the second Sunday of the month, then a great drive down to Judbury for their market is well worth the time. Great food over the lunch time as well as local products. It is held at Calvert Park which is the Judbury Recreation Ground.

My parents enjoyed bike riding and one of their favourite places to go with the Hobart Walking Club bike riders was down around the Huon Valley area especially Ranelagh to Judbury. In the photo above, mum wasn’t well enough to cycle so I drove her in the car while dad joined their friends. We met them at Judbury for lunch.
