The Tamar Valley








To the north of Launceston is the beautiful Tamar Valley, where for 64km, the tidal waters wind through orchards, vineyards, strawberry farms, lavender plantations, forested hills and grazing land. We took a drive out to Beauty Point in the far northwest corner along the East Tamar Highway marvelling at the spectacular scenery and peaceful surroundings - we stopped at various points along the way simply to take in the fabulous views of th Tamar River, the view back towards Launceston and Batman Bridge. We are running out of suprlatives to describe the sights we have the pleasure to enjoy here in Australia, and especially here in Tasmania, idyllic comes close!
