Camper trailers in Launceston.

Cradle Mountain an hour and a half west, Bay of Fires two hours east, Ben Lomond up the back road. Launceston sits in the middle of one of the best touring radii in the country. The OPUS range is built for it.

Launceston · Northern Tasmania

Built for northern Tassie touring.

Northern Tasmania is the easiest part of the island to use a camper in. Cradle is on a sealed road. Bay of Fires sits at the end of a tar run. Ben Lomond is up a graded gravel. The OPUS range is built for that mix — heavy-duty independent suspension for the dirt-and-gravel sections, the Air Beam tent for setup in minutes when the alpine weather turns.

Tamar Valley wineries, the Mole Creek karst, Narawntapu's beach country — Launceston owners chase a different kind of weekend every fortnight. The galvanised chassis, off-road tyres and underbody design handle the back tracks without breaking a sweat.

OPUS Melbourne (Keysborough) is the closest mainland showroom and the workshop. Devonport's an hour west of you — most Launceston orders come off the Spirit at Devonport and head straight to the driveway.

The trips that earn the camper

Northern Tassie weekenders.

Where the Launceston OPUS spends most weekends.

01

Cradle Mountain–Lake St Clair NP

Tassie's icon, an hour and a half west via Sheffield. Dove Lake, the Overland gateway, sealed access.

02

Ben Lomond NP

Alpine plateau and dolerite tors. The closest alpine country to town. Winter pitches need the diesel heater.

03

Bay of Fires

Two hours east via Scottsdale. Binalong, Cosy Corner, the orange granite coast. Best done over a week.

04

Narawntapu NP

Wallabies and beach country an hour north. Tasmania's Serengeti at dusk.

05

Mole Creek karst

Caves and quiet bush pitches. The back door to Cradle if you've got time.

06

Tamar Valley

Wineries with pitches inside easy tow. The Pinot Friday-night escape from town.

Common questions

Everything you want to know.

Yes. Most orders are handed over at Keysborough and crossed on the Spirit to Devonport, or trucked direct to your Launceston address once the boat lands. Quote your postcode in the nav for a delivered tow-away figure.

The OP4 is the favourite for rugged Tassie touring — diesel heating optional, room for the gear, Air Beam setup for the alpine weather. Couples chasing Tamar and Bay of Fires weekends often go OP2.

Absolutely. The off-road suspension, galvanised chassis and weather-rated canvas are designed for the kind of conditions Tasmania trades in. The Expedition Max hybrid is the pick if you want hard walls.

Yes. The road is sealed and graded gravel — the OP4 chassis and suspension treat it like a Sunday drive.

Under five minutes with Air Beam. Pull into the first pitch, inflate, walk into the tent.
