Depart Launceston for a scenic drive to Longford to enjoy the annual Longford Blooms. Spend the morning exploring private gardens that are rarely open to the public. Each garden showcases unique landscaping styles and spring blooms. The festival also features plant stalls, garden art and local food. We then visit beautiful Cataract Gorge, found surprisingly close to the city centre. Afterwards, enjoy fine local produce and a glass of wine at a nearby winery before we reconvene for a Welcome Dinner at a local restaurant.
