Tailrace Ramp

Located on Eloura Street in Trevallyn, near Launceston, the Tailrace Ramp is a dual-lane concrete boat ramp with a central floating pontoon providing access to the Tamar River.

Managed by West Tamar Council, it sits adjacent to Tailrace Park, a spacious waterfront reserve. The ramp performs well across a range of tidal conditions, though it works best at high tide; suitability at lower tides depends on vessel size.

The site is popular with both boaters and kayakers. Nearby amenities include ample parking with space for vehicles towing trailers, public toilets, drinking fountains, and rubbish bins.

The surrounding park offers BBQ facilities, grassy areas, and walking and cycling tracks along the scenic Tamar River foreshore.
