Ben Lomond

Ben Lomond, located in Tasmania's north-east, is renowned for its alpine beauty and recreational opportunities. As Tasmania's premier alpine resort, it offers skiing, snowboarding, and tobogganing during the winter months, with reliable snow coverage from mid-June to late September. In summer, the area transforms into a haven for hikers, rock climbers, and cyclists, all eager to explore its stunning scenery and alpine wildflowers. Access to the resort is via the steep and winding Jacob's Ladder road, which has been recently upgraded to accommodate increasing visitor numbers. Visitors are required to carry snow chains between June and September, as conditions can change rapidly. Entry into Ben Lomond National Park necessitates a valid park entry permit, which can be obtained on-site or pre-purchased online. The resort's base facilities include a visitor centre, licensed café, rental services, and a merchandise area, ensuring a comfortable experience for all guests.
