City Sights
A lot of interesting sights of Launceston are in walking distance of the flat. Here are some of my favourite things to see in the city.
Very handy walk from the flat. Zig-zag track for more of a challenge or the far-side of the bridge for an easier stroll. Great place for a swim in a chlorinated pool or the natural basin.

Hollybank was the go-to MTB park before Derby was opened. It's just 40min drive from town and is well laid-out with a natural terrain track and plenty of bushwalking for the non-riders.
