The Neighbourhood
Launceston is a charming city where heritage character meets vibrant food, wine, culture, and natural beauty. With historic streetscapes, beautiful parks, excellent restaurants, and the Tamar River nearby, there’s plenty to discover.
The neighbourhood is surrounded by an excellent selection of cafés, restaurants, boutiques, pubs, cocktail bars, and local amenities. Charles Street is often considered Launceston’s answer to Melbourne’s Lygon Street, with a fantastic variety of popular eateries and cafés. George Street, known as ‘Eat Street’, is another local favourite, offering restaurants, bars, gin houses, and cafés to suit a range of tastes.
For local produce and Tasmanian flavours, don’t miss the vibrant Harvest Launceston Community Farmers’ Market, held every Saturday morning. The city also offers plenty of entertainment, including performances at the Princess Theatre, films at the Star Theatre, and live music at local pubs and venues.
Cataract Gorge
Cataract Gorge is one of Launceston’s most iconic attractions, offering scenic walking trails, swimming areas, beautiful gardens, and the famous single-span chairlift. Keep an eye out for the resident peacocks!
You can also experience the gorge and surrounding waterways from the water with a Tamar River cruise.
City Park & Penny Royal
City Park is a beautiful green space featuring mature oak trees, gardens, a children’s playground, conservatory, and the popular Japanese macaques.
Nearby, Penny Royal offers an action-packed day out with activities including boat rides, rock climbing, and rope courses. There are also places to relax with a coffee or wine while enjoying the atmosphere.
Seaport Precinct
The Seaport Precinct sits along the Tamar River and is home to a great selection of restaurants, cafés, and bars. Popular dining options include Mud Restaurant and Bar, The Levee Food Co., and Spice.
Across the bridge, you’ll find Riverbend Park, the Boathouse Café, and the Silo Hotel, providing even more options for dining, relaxing, and enjoying the waterfront.
