    Great place to hike and spend the morning. We were impressed how well maintained the trails were and how beautiful the scenery was. Fun trip.

    Cody our guide was very knowledgeable and loves a good dad joke. Unfortunately the processing plant was closed on Sundays. However, it didn't take away the taste of the beer at the end of the tour.

    Just a relaxing place to visit. Nice to walk around whilst on a lunchbreak and take time out from a busy schedule. Thanks to Launceston City Council and workers.

    Enjoyed a walk through this museum. Has many different exhibitions on display. Staff welcoming and helpful. A little difficult to find when using google maps. It’s actually on the UTAS grounds.

    We did a self drive winery tour of the Tamar valley and it was so great. Lots of little quirky wineries run by the couples that own them. Loved it!

    Very interesting musuem. Didn't realise it existed until I saw a mention of it on a Facebook post. Well worth a visit, particularly if you're into motor racing and motorbikes.

    Left Launceston for our next destination and stopped here on the way through. One of the more beautifully presented wineries I've visited in Australia. Didn't have a booking but as we were first there the friendly and helpful staff gladly fitted us in. The tasting experience was quite good with some different and lovely wines. We bought several bottles here but they don't discount or waive the tasting fee 🤔. Didn't have time for lunch but the restaurant looked nice. Wasn't overly interested with their menu thought. However if you like your wine and food then definitely check it out.

    Amazing to have nature close to the city. Wonderful welcoming people at the chairlift booth. Such a surprising little place to visit with family or by yourself. Easy walk from Cbd. Restaurant available if you have time to stop. Came highly recommended by a local.

    We drove past here each day during our stay in Rosevears and made a point of checking it out. Easy parking. The walk was much longer than we expected which we were happy with. Very peaceful. A good variety of birds to be seen. Beautiful views of the surrounding hills. Toilets were located at the far end of the walk and I was pleasantly surprised to see a picnic and BBQ area there also. Well worth stopping for 💕

    A fairly easy walk alongside a running creek, through a lovely rainforest area, to reach two beautiful waterfalls. The walk is mostly accessible by prams or wheelchairs until you get closer and need to climb some stairs and uneven stone steps to reach the waterfalls. Plenty of rocks to clamber over when you get to the falls. Just out of Lilydale and a short drive from Launceston - worth the effort.

    This market, which is held weekly on Saturday mornings, has its own dedicated paved area on Cimitiere Street.

    Lots of stalls, well spaced, with seating areas.

    Stalls sold mostly fresh produce (fruit and vegetables, meats, seafood, artisan bread, pastries and dairy). There were though some spirit providers as well as artisan preserves, pickles, cured meats and salami, honey etc plus some ready to eat take away offerings.

    Would visit every week to stock up the fridge and the pantry if we lived in Launceston.
