Meehan Range

The Meehan Range (/ˈmiːənreɪndʒ/ MEE-ən-RAYNJ) is a prominent geographic feature in southeastern Tasmania, consisting of steep hills and ridges running parallel to the River Derwent on the eastern shore of Hobart. Situated primarily in the City of Clarence, the range is protected as a natural area and offers a mix of conservation and recreational opportunities. The range includes bushwalking tracks and a growing network of mountain bike trails.

The range is named after James Meehan, an early surveyor of colonial Van Diemen's Land. It features two distinct orientations: the western slopes face the River Derwent and are heavily urbanised, while the eastern slopes overlook Pitt Water and remain largely rural, although increasingly subdivided into commuter properties.
