25.01.2022 With the weather forecast over the next few days looking fantastic ....... where else would you rather be? The picturesque Cataract Gorge is looking great this time of year and the free swimming pool is crystal clear. Come for a walk, a swim, ride the chairlift or dine in the Basin Cafe, Gorge Restaurant or the Gorge Kiosk.There are plenty of options for locals and travellers alike.

24.01.2022 So, the fires are impacting communities, lives and animals. It’s heartbreaking for all of us. From afar, I have again rallied some amazing supporters to stage ...another Northern Tasmanian event to raise funds for those communities ravaged by fire. I am aware that many communities are of course on very real alert, so my intention is to just turn my sadness into action. Not to distract from the amazing work going on at the scenes and not to distract from the incredible appeals and events that are already happening or being planned. This is another way that some in our community can support our mates. It’s via Rotary, which means 100 per cent of the funds raised will be used in those communities impacted. It’s using my contacts and skills to do what I can. I encourage you to do the same big or small. Who can assist?

20.01.2022 The Tasmanian September school holidays are nearly upon us. If you’re planning on visiting Launceston over this holiday period, a visit to the stunning Cataract Gorge is a must. Take the family for a walk in the picturesque grounds or ride the Scenic Chairlift for a different view of the wonderful surrounds. For dining options, we have the Basin Cafe with an all day breakfast and lunch menu including takeaway choices, or the Gorge Restaurant for dinner on Friday and Saturday ...evenings.
