My Guide to Launceston
Parks
-
City Park
45 Tamar St, Launceston
One of the oldest parks in Australia, City Park is best enjoyed with a relaxing picnic and stroll around the beautiful gardens. There’s plenty to do for kids and adults including play equipment, a giant chess set, train ride, tranquil conservatory, and even a monkey enclosure.
-
Riverbend Park
81 Lindsay St, Invermay
If you’re on the hunt for a place to tire out the kids, you can’t go past Riverbend. This place has it all – multiple playgrounds, water play area, huge sports court, musical instruments, skywalk, toddler play area and more. Thank me later!
-
Punchbowl Reserve
102-134 Punchbowl Rd, Punchbowl
Punchbowl Reserve is a local favourite, with a playground, walking trails, duck pond and public barbeque facilities. It’s such a nice spot for a day outdoors.

Kings Park
88-96 Paterson St, Launceston
Take a walk along the foreshore of the Tamar River, on the edge of Launceston’s CBD. Why not top it off with a tasty lunch at Stillwater?
