LAUNCESTON

LAUNCESTON

Launceston has recreated itself and now has some of Australia’s top restaurants and stylish places to stay. It has fine Victorian
buildings from the 1870s and 1880s and elegant contemporary architecture. Cool climate wines and fine dining are the essence of
the new Launceston experience and the city is a perfect base from which to explore the surrounding region. The tidal River Tamar
flows north from Launceston to George Town and Bass Strait, past forested hills and pastures, lavender plantations, vineyards,
strawberry farms and orchards. Excellent restaurants, superb boutique wineries and simple roadside stalls ensure every appetite is
indulged.
