🌿 Launceston Day Trip: Wetlands, Vintage Trams & 19th-Century Charm

Slow-paced and steeped in history, Tasmania’s second city is perfect for a relaxed urban-nature blend. Here’s our fave route: 🌅 Morning: Tamar Island Wetlands 📍 10 mins from CBD 1.5km boardwalk through reeds + birdwatching (swans if lucky!). Pro tip: Morning light = magical reflections. 🏛️ Midday: City Walk ⛲ Prince’s Square: 1824 St. John’s Church + Victorian fountain. 🌺 City Park: 1800s greenhouse + sunbathing Japanese macaques 🐒. 🚡 Afternoon: Cataract Gorge Wild peacocks + cliffside cable car ($20 return). Golden hour = prime photography! 📸 🛏 Stay: Launceston Holiday Park Cozy cabins by the wetlands (road-trip approved!). #LauncestonDiaries #TasmaniaUnplugged #HistoricWander #NatureMeetsCity ✨
