Cataract Gorge is a stunning natural attraction just a 15-minute walk from Launceston’s city center. It features dramatic cliffs, walking trails, a free swimming pool, and beautiful gardens. Highlights include the world’s longest single-span chairlift and the historic Duck Reach Power Station. We love the scenic views, easy access, and wildlife like peacocks and wallabies. A must-visit for nature lovers, families, and history buffs alike.
