About
Little Devil Backpackers sits in Ranelagh, a quiet suburb south of Hobart, making it a solid base for travellers seeking outdoor adventures without the bustle of the city centre. The hostel appeals to independent explorers and nature-focused backpackers who want easy access to Tasmania's natural attractions. Nearby highlights include kunanyi/Mount Wellington for hiking, The Organ Pipes for dramatic rock formations, and Hartz Mountains National Park for more serious walking tracks. Agnes Rivulet and Abbotsfield Rivulet offer smaller-scale exploration closer by. With a 4.2-star rating across 87 reviews, the hostel maintains decent standing among budget travellers. The regional location suits those with transport or flexible itineraries, rather than party seekers or those wanting constant nightlife. It's a practical choice for solo backpackers wanting a comfortable base to explore southern Tasmania's wilderness, though expectations should align with a quieter suburban setting rather than a social hub atmosphere.
