Australia Day 4: North Tasmania

28 June 2025 • 203 km / 126 mi (map)

After a few days of go-go-go we needed a respite. So my daughter took a day to lay low and I took a casual drive around the north part of the island.

I briefly toured the Cataract Gorge Reserve just outside of Launceston and then meandered through some farm country to the west.

A weathered rock cliff face patched with pale lichen runs along the left side of a dirt path, with feathery she-oak trees and a bright blue sky scattered with white clouds above at Cataract Gorge Reserve.
