About Launceston

A vibrant city in northern Tasmania, Launceston lives up to its reputation as a cultural hub with first-class museums, natural attractions, and a thriving art and culinary scene. As one of Australia’s oldest cities, it is a showcase of elegant Colonial and Victorian architecture and ancient parks, surrounded by a burgeoning wine region.

Thing to do

For a dose of nature without leaving the city centre, Cataract Gorge features towering cliffs, bush lands and Victorian-era gardens, with the South Esk River slicing through town. You can ride one of the longest single-span chairlifts in the country, and explore the park on hiking and cycling paths, as dramatic floodlights illuminate the area at night.

City Park draws families and animal lovers to interact with monkeys at the glass Japanese macaque enclosure and to enjoy picnics at the Victorian fountain and kid’s playground. For a chance to see live entertainment, a music conservatory hosts seasonal concert performances.

A focus on art and design is prevalent throughout Launceston, evidenced by the world-famous Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery. The facility harbours a fascinating group of natural, technology and zoology collections as well as an impressive planetarium. A perfect souvenir, the Design Centre Tasmania sells artisan objects made with local Huon pinewood.

A big draw to visiting Launceston is its access to the rolling vineyards of Tasmania’s premier wine-growing region. The Tamar River winds through forested hills, farms and lavender fields, dotted with vineyards and orchards. Historic villages to explore begin at Longford on the outskirts of Launceston and extend south along the Heritage Highway.

Getting around Launceston

Metro buses service the main areas and suburbs of Launceston, but taxis are also available at all times. You can pick up a rental car at Launceston Airport for exploring the region. Bicycle rentals offer a popular way to travel between attractions.

  • What are some reasons to rent a car in Launceston?

    While this vibrant town offers plenty to do within the city limits, having a great rental car is a terrific way to see some of the amazing spots that lie outside the city.

This area also offers bathroom facilities and a playground kids will love. A little farther to the north, where the River Tamar meets the Bass Strait, is Low Head Penguin Tours. This location offers a number of knowledgeable and very informative guides who can take you up close and personal to all of the penguins to not only to enjoy interacting with these amazing species but also learn quite a bit about their lives and the environment that surrounds them.

  • If I would like to make a day trip to Hobart on the southern coast of Tasmania, what are some of my options?

    One of the easiest ways to make this trip is to travel on either the Line 702 or 700 bus provided by Redline.

The trip to Hobart takes around 2h 45 min, and the same bus company provides five return buses every day that can make the trip back to Launceston in about the same amount of time. This is also a very beautiful and scenic drive that most people can make on their own in about 2h 15 min depending on traffic conditions, but for the most part, there will not be much traffic as you make your way through the rugged terrain of Tasmania.

This brewery features tour guides that will show you this entire historic property in detail, and at the end of the tour, there will be a tasting that is both fun and informative. A quite popular destination in the center of the city is the Harvest Market. This is an open-air market that features a number of local delicacies, plus there is generally live music going on during the market.
