Things to do

The Tamar Valley is a wine-growing region, with some of Tasmania's best known wines. It would be a waste not to visit the many wineries in the region, since many have nice restaurants and picturesque settings. Amongst them, are the Bays of Fire winery, with a great garden setting; Piper's Brook Vineyards, with a lovely cloistered garden; Rosevear's winery, which overlooks the Tamar valley, and Daniel Alps at Strathlynn, which is by the water. Most wineries are open to visitors, and tastings can be done. A local winery map is available from the Tourist Office.
