Launceston is northern Tasmania's main city, set at the head of the Tamar River with Georgian streets and a wild gorge close to the centre.
Launceston lies at the head of the Tamar River, where the North Esk and South Esk meet, and is Tasmania's second city. Georgian and Victorian buildings line its streets, and Cataract Gorge, a steep ravine of the South Esk, opens within walking distance of the centre, with a suspension bridge, bush tracks and a chairlift. City Park holds a Japanese macaque enclosure and a conservatory.
