Why Queenstown?

Set against a dramatic “moonscape” of rugged hills and rich mining history, Queenstown is one of Tasmania’s most distinctive towns. It’s a place where you can slow down, stretch out, and connect — to nature, to your patients, and to your work.

  • Population ~1,800 – friendly, welcoming, and community-minded
  • 40 minutes to Strahan– for cruises, wilderness rail, and coastline adventures
  • Surrounded by fishing lakes, rainforests, and the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area
  • An off-the-beaten-path lifestyle that’s full of natural beauty and old-world charm

You’ll need:
