North Lilydale is a small rural locality in north-eastern Tasmania, situated approximately 28 kilometres north-east of Launceston within the postcode 7268 area shared with Lilydale and Underwood. The locality spans approximately 14.7 square kilometres of gently undulating farmland in an area that straddles the boundary between the Dorset and Launceston local government areas.

The surrounding area is characterised by pastoral farming, grazing land, and the scenic rural scenery typical of north-eastern Tasmania. The nearby township of Lilydale offers residents access to a general store, primary school, and community facilities, while Launceston provides the full range of urban services including hospitals, shopping centres, and employment. A private car is essential for daily life in this locality, though a limited bus service connects the area to Launceston.
