Everywhere in the Northern Midlands is an easy day trip from Launceston, but why not spend several days exploring our delightful towns and villages. Each has something unique to offer, with stories of convicts, bushrangers, and colonial settlers, fabulous dining experiences, exciting shopping opportunities, accommodations with loads of character, all kinds of things to do and see, plus plenty of markets, events and festivals.

The landscape changes from mountainous country, to extensive grazing lands, to rich agricultural river flats of the Esk, Lake and Macquarie Rivers.
