Deloraine

Deloraine is a pretty riverside town on the Meander River in north-west Tasmania surrounded by pristine countryside where caves, waterfalls, cliffs, lakes and nature reserves are waiting to be experienced.

In the foothills of the Great Western Tiers, this charming town features many Georgian and Victorian buildings that have been carefully restored and now house galleries, restaurants and studios.

Deloraine is set against a beautiful natural backdrop including the limestone caves of Mole Creek Karst National Park, Cradle Mountain along with fascinating waterfalls, most notably Liffey Falls, the most famous waterfalls in Tasmania.

The land itself is largely used for dairy farming which feeds the local cheese manufacturing industry with the region specialising in English and Swiss style cheeses.

Deloraine also has several art and craft galleries and in November each year becomes home to Australia’s largest working craft fair. More the 200 exhibitors and 30,000 visitors descend on the region for the four day festival to indulge in Tasmania’s finest food and wine and watch and learn from candle artists, silkscreen creators, glassblowers and woodcarvers to name only a few.

Even more attractions can be explored with an easy day trip from Deloraine including 41 Degrees South Salmon Farm, the Ginseng Farm, Christmas Hills Raspberry Farm, Stephens Honey and the Ashgrove Cheese Factory.
