==Geography and environment== [[File:Hobart, Tasmania Soldier's Walk 2007.jpg|thumb|Soldier's Walk in Hobart, with a tree and plaque for each soldier lost in the Great War.]] The highest point of the Domain reaches approximately {{convert|136|m|ft}}, with a prominent radio mast nearby. The landscape comprises native bushland, open parklands, and historic sites. Despite significant development, the Domain retains nationally significant remnants of its original grassy woodland landscape. Two of its seven native plant communities are classified as rare: * ''[[Lowland Themeda]]'' triandra grasslands – Listed as ‘Critically Endangered’ under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). * ''[[Eucalyptus globulus]]'' forest and woodlands – Listed as ‘Threatened’ under the Nature Conservation Act 2002. These ecosystems support over 130 native plant species, including three listed as endangered or vulnerable under the EPBC Act and 16 classified as rare or threatened under the Threatened Species Protection Act 1995. The Domain’s landscape, with its distinctive grassy hues and silver-grey trees, contributes to Hobart’s natural character.<ref name="masterplan"/>
