Zig Zag Reserve — Attraction in Launceston

Easy stroll from CBD centre along Patterson street .once past the beautiful stone building of the penny royal apartments and climbing excitement . Steady climb up some stone steps before bridge crossing . Indulgence in the naturally formed steps and path to viewing platforms .and incredible rock formations with water from Duck reach that makes its way to the main Tamar river . What ever the weather it's a spectacular walk .workout for many .but a slow gradual climb and plenty of stops to admire the views will impress most visitors and always delights the locals that daily walk .run and take in the quietness .bird calls and water rushing through the stones and boulders . A must do on any day .evening that you can share or selfishly alone .even the chairlift gives another perspective of the surrounding nature...
