The Wall in the Wilderness

The Wall In The Wilderness is 2 km along the highway from the charger site towards Hobart. It is a bit of a hike there and back and you will want to spend some time there, so perhaps left until you have finished charging and proceed in your EV.

Greg Duncan started this ambitious art project in 2015. Duncan's uncannily realistic work presents vignettes of the history of the highlands including horses, thylacines and foresters, in 100 metres of carved Huon Pine timber. A world-class experience just down the road.

Lake St Clair National Park

Lake St Clair Visitor Centre is about 5 km from the charge site, along Lake St Clair Road.

Lake St Clair is Australia's deepest freshwater lake, excavated by ancient glaciers. It is the southern end of a national park extending all the way to Cradle Mountain in the north. It is the southern end of the Overland Track but has many attactions for those not up to a 5 day walk. The walks along the lake take you among wildflowers and wildlife. There are lake cruises and the visitor centre has won awards. Licensed trout fishing is permitted in season.

Donaghys Lookout

On the way to Queenstown 35 kilometres from Derwent Bridge stop at Donaghys lookout for an easy 3 km, 40 min return hike with truly stunning views of the Franklin River Valley and Frenchman's Cap. The signposted car park is on the south side of the highway.
