    Southwest National Park
    ​This magnificent park encompasses over six hundred thousand hectares of wild, inspiring country and forms part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. The park epitomises the grandeur and spirit of remote wilderness in its truest sense.

    The Gordon River and Scotts Peak roads wind through forest, scrub and moorland, interspersed with breathtaking views of rugged mountains like the Saw Back, Western Arthur and Frankland ranges. This is wilderness at its best, and it is equally accessible to those who enjoy the comfort of driving as it is to those who wish to walk in some of the most spectacular country in Australia.​
