Deloraine is an historic town that is located midway between Launceston and Devonport and is situated on the banks of the beautiful Meander River. It is surrounded by rolling green hills, hedgerows and working farms, and sits at the foothills of the Great Western Tiers mountain range, which forms the northern edge of the World Heritage Central Plateau. The town was settled in the early 1800’s and blossomed through the ‘golden fifties’ due to successful grazing and agriculture on the large estates surrounding the town. Today, this bustling rural centre is Tasmania’s largest inland town and is a major art and craft centre. Many of the town’s colonial buildings have found new life as galleries, craft centres, museums and restaurants. Along the river, there are well-tended park and garden areas with pleasant walks, sculptures, and informative signs relating to the history and the attractions of the town.The Great Western Tiers Visitor Centre is at the top of the main street.
