Background
The City of Hobart wants to know what you love about Hobart's green open spaces.
Public open spaces are important to our community for so many reasons.
Whether we are using open spaces to get some peace and quiet, connect to nature, catch up with friends and family, play in play spaces, for sport or exercise or walk the dog.
Green open spaces include public spaces like: bushland, city and urban parks, foreshores, playgrounds, sportsgrounds, tracks and trails, etc.
We want to know our community's favourite open spaces in Hobart and what you value about them to help us better manage and plan these spaces in the future. When the results are in, we will be publishing Hobart's top 10 favourite open spaces!
If you would like to know more about Hobart's green open spaces and how your feedback will be used, you can read our FAQs on the right of this page.
