22 days in Launceston Itinerary

Lying in the Tamar Valley and surrounded by forested hills, the grid-patterned city of Launceston boasts shaded avenues, vibrant street life, and a cosmopolitan atmosphere.

You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at The Low Head Lighthouse and Franklin House. Change things up with these side-trips from Launceston: Rowella (Holm Oak Vineyards & Iron Pot Bay Vineyard), Legerwood Memorial Tree Carvings (in Legerwood) and Sidmouth (Wines for Joanie, Moores Hill Estate, &more). There's still lots to do: steep yourself in history at Entally House, do a tasting at Ghost Rock Tasmania, explore the wealth of natural beauty at Narawntapu National Park, and snap pictures at Ross Bridge.

Expect a daytime high around 26°C in March, and nighttime lows around 11°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 11th (Thu) early enough to travel back home.
