Huonville (pop. 1300) is the commercial center of the Huon valley, a large fruit-growing area (mainly apples). In early colonial days the settlers felled great quantities of the slow-growing Huon pine, whose fine wood was then much in demand. The beautiful country round Huonville, with the little townships of Ranelagh (Motor Museum), Grove (Apple Museum) and Glen Huon, is a favorite recreation area with the people of Hobart.
