Cataract Gorge

The Cataract Gorge is a gorgeous basin located fifteen minutes from Launceston, featuring the world’s longest single-span chairlift. There are walking tracks, a cafe, swimming pool and toilet facilities.

Settler William Collins first discovered the Cataract Gorge in 1804. He wrote, “The beauty of the scene is probably not surpassed in the world”. The Cataract Gorge is easily accessible via car.
