Launceston

Launceston sits on the Tamar and is the northern hub between Hobart, the east coast and the north-west. Cataract Gorge is the free walk in town. The Tamar Valley wine route runs north. From here, Cradle Mountain and Devonport are both a few hours, in different directions, so a 14-day island plan should pick one loop rather than trying to star-burst every night.

Suggested time: 1–2 nights.
