Nestled in the north of Tasmania, the city of Launceston feels like a place where history lingers in the air like morning mist over the Tamar Valley. Founded in 1806, it is one of Australia’s oldest cities, its streets lined with elegant Victorian and Georgian buildings that whisper stories of early colonial life.

At the heart of Launceston lies the remarkable Cataract Gorge, a natural wonder just minutes from the city centre. Here, sheer cliffs cradle the South Esk River, while walking trails, gardens, and even a scenic chairlift offer sweeping views that seem almost painted into existence.

Launceston is also a gateway to the fertile Tamar Valley, a region celebrated for its vineyards and cool-climate wines. Food lovers find plenty to admire, with a thriving dining scene that champions local produce, from fresh seafood to artisanal cheeses.

Culturally, the city punches above its weight, home to galleries, theatres, and the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery, one of Australia’s largest regional museums.

Blending heritage charm with natural beauty, Launceston offers a slower, richer rhythm of life, where river, history, and landscape meet in quiet harmony.
