What a lovely spot this is. Firstly the sheer rugged cliffs with the continuous flow of fresh water. Then the contrast of the picturesque pond. We were there in October and the gardens were just stunning. The rhododendrons and camellias were in full bloom providing masses of color and making the vista truly spectacular. what a great spot and right... More

The one attraction in Launceston you really must visit, a wonderful survival of 19th-century ideals of the picturesque, with the wild natural landscape (absolutely awe-inspiring on the fairly rare occasions when it runs in spate) combined with a typical respectable Victorian park where peacocks get under your feet and perch in the trees at night. Lots of wildlife after dark... More

A beautiful place to visit and so close to Launceston. Enjoyed the chairlift and the walks and chatting to the friendly guide in the information centre. More

The weather on the day we visited was perfect which enhanced our opinions of this beautiful spot. Chair lift ride well worth it and the travellator allowed those who are not as mobile to get to various levels. More

I was amazed at how close Cataract Gorge is to the middle of Launceston - usually you need to drive kilometres and hours from a city to experience a natural resource like this. 5 mins drive and you're there! In May, when we went, the colours of autumn are so evident as to make you feel like you're in Europe... More

We have been going to this pace for over 25 years. Every night has been fantastic with great service and great food. The menu is great and a reasonable price. Wine selection is very good. The winter nights are by far the best with a great winter menu. The open fire just adds to the charm of this wonderful venue. More

It's one of the natural wonders of this city and I think it's marvellous that it is only a fifteen minute stroll from the city centre. When it is flooding, it's a sight to behold, as... More

My partner and I stopped by Cataract Gorge expecting it to just be a lookout. However, we were pleasantly surprised by all of the different walks and things to do. We enjoyed some of the steeper walks that were a bit more challenging, as well as the chair lift and the suspension bridge. We spent about 3 hours total there,... More

Great exercise, very walkable, some locals are jogging and wonderful atmosphere. Everyones friendly walking up and down and on the chairlift, having coffee with peacocks. Cool views from More
