Come ride with me ! (a fairly long ride)
The magnificent chairlift was built in 1972 spanning the huge natural basin often filled by the surging waters of the South Esk River.
The chairlift covers some 457 metres, with terminal buildings at the First Basin (West Launceston) end and idling station at the Cliff Grounds side (Trevallyn). The central span of 308 metres is believed to be the longest single chairlift span in the world.

This is part of a batch of Tasmanian and other videos I managed to recover from a failed hard drive, so this batch is long-lost.
This is apparently one of the longest chairlifts in the world. It is an alternative to taking the ground trails and spans the gorge itself.

Fixtures: Safety bar
Year installed: 1972
Distance: 457m (central span 308 m)

Aalexandra suspension bridge Launceston.
History:
Opened 30 November 1904.
The total length is 220ft., the clear span between the centres of the steel towers being 150ft. The bridge structure is formed of steel frames, hung by steel rods from the main cables, and carrying
a wood decking, with a galvanized steel lattice guard at each side, giving a path way 3ft. 6in. wide. There are two main cables, taking the whole of the weight.
These are made of plough steel wire, of the highest quality, and are 1¾in. in diameter. Anchored at each end to the solid rock, they are passed over steel towers 32ft high, between which they depend in graceful curves.

LAUNCESTON'S GORGE SCENIC CHAIRLIFT
Launceston's Gorge Scenic Chairlift lets you view magnificent Cataract Gorge from above, located in Northern Tasmania.
Take in the spectacular features of Cataract Gorge from this single-span chairlift. View the South Esk River in a serene or turbulent mood after a flood as well as tree rhododendrons and fern glades.
It takes about eight minutes to take the ride across Cataract Gorge and First Basin. Top speed is a sedate one metre per second, but usually the chairlift runs slower than that to afford passengers a longer ride.
It is about 457 metres (1462 feet) from station to station, with a central span between two pylons of 308 metres (985 feet), believed to be the longest single span of any chairlift in the world. Since its opening in 1972, the chairlift has established a 100 percent safety record.
Be sure to also wander the grounds below the chairlift, where you can enjoy an outdoor swimming pool, tea rooms and the delightful peacocks who inhabit the area.
Launceston's Gorge Scenic Chairlift is around a 15-minute walk from Launceston's central business district.
