Triabunna (YTUA) → George Town (YGTO).
Difficulty: 1/5
POI’s: 4
Summary:
Our second flight was way easier than the first one. Yet this relaxed journey through the Midlands of Tasmania and the Tamar Valley was full of beautiful views and vistas.
POI’s:
The first part of our journey wasn’t much different from first leg: We had to cross several hill ranges (although none as high as the ones in the South-Western Wilderness!) before entering the Midlands near Macquarie River (1).
The first “real” town we came across was Campbell Town (2), which turned out to be a rather sparsely-populated community in the Southern Midlands.
Launceston (3) was the second city (after Hobart) that we visited on our journey across Tasmania. Here, the Tamar Valley begins, which stretches all the way to the Northern coast of the island.
Tamar River (4) is not really a river - it is more of a joined estuary of both North and South Esk River. After following it all the way to the coast, we landed in one of the oldest European settlements in Australia: We arrived in George Town!
