Rock Climbing

• Catch your breath on our highest peaks.
• Climb without crowds.
• Check out the Totem Pole or the Candlestick.
  

When you explore Australia’s most mountainous state it’s easy to find a peak to challenge you.

When you walk the Overland Track, you can climb Mount Ossa, our highest peak (1,617 metres/5,300 feet), or the famous jagged profile of Cradle Mountain, and then head south to scale Frenchmans Cap (1,446 metres/4,700 feet) in Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park.

Or you may want the extreme challenge of two dolerite stacks, called the Totem Pole and the Candlestick, rising up to 60 metres (almost 200 feet) above the Southern Ocean, part of the Tasman National Park.

Remember, too, that our weather is unpredictable so follow the safety regulations and check with the local ranger.
