Trevallyn State Recreation Reserve...

Two kilometres out of Launceston on the West Tamar Highway (A7), turn left to the Trevallyn State Recreation Area, where you can enjoy walking, mountain biking, horse riding and the Trevallyn Dam. From the dam, the Hydro releases water to create the rafting and kayaking action in the Cataract Gorge. Boating and swimming are popular pastimes on Lake Trevallyn, and there are well-kept picnic sites in the area.

Also popular is the cable hang gliding facility - experience the sensation of soaring over an 18-metre cliff to your landing point 200 metres from the take off platform. Using approved safety methods, cable hang gliding offers you the chance to feel completely free as you soar through the sky.
