Time Out says

What is it? On the outskirts of Launceston, this wheelchair-friendly boardwalk weaves through the grasses and over footbridges along the kanamaluka / River Tamar. It’s a prime spot for bird enthusiasts, but keep your eyes peeled for other Aussie critters like reptiles, frogs, fish and creepy crawlies.

Why go?  If you're feeling under the feather (get it?), this peaceful boardwalk is just the ticket. You can spot about 60 bird species here, from ducks and black swans to egrets, cormorants, and swamp harriers. Pack a picnic for some stunning views down the Tamar Valley – and remember, no feeding the birds.
