With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience everything that Longford, 20 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here ought to be Woolmers Estate, Brickendon Estate and Christ Church Longford. Locals will also probably point you toward Launceston, 25 miles away. If you only see one thing here, let it be City Park. (But we’re also big fans of Brisbane Street Mall and Cataract Gorge.)
