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 Brickendon Colonial Farm Village 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 lots more to do: visit a coastal fixture at The Low Head Lighthouse, snap pictures at Ross Bridge, take in the exciting artwork at Design Centre Tasmania, and take some stellar pictures from Brady's Lookout.

In March, daily temperatures in Launceston can reach 26°C, while at night they dip to 11°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 11th (Thu) to allow time to travel back home.
