Whilst in Hobart, go and see Strickland Avenue Falls and O'Grady's Falls, well worth it.

It's also well worth making the trip out to Huonville (40min out) and dropping in at Willie Smiths. Best cider I have had and a really cool place! If your in Huonville, you can drive out to Snug (can't remember how long that took, maybe an hour) and see Snug Falls too.
We visited snug falls yesterday, only a trickle of water coming over the falls but I imagine by August there will be more, It's a 2.1km walk return and is mostly uphill on the way out so gets the heart going and warms you up. Thanks for the heads up Sarge, we will be in Hobart today for a week and definitely will make our way to Strickland Ave falls, O'grady's falls and Mt Wellington.
