Gormanston, TAS

Nestled on the slopes of Mount Owen, Gormanston is a historic mining town that once thrived as the company town for the Mount Lyell Mining and Railway Company. Established in the 1890s, it served as a hub for workers at the Iron Blow open-cut copper mine. At its peak, Gormanston boasted a population of around 2,000 residents. Today, the town has transformed into a quiet retreat, offering visitors a glimpse into Tasmania's rich mining heritage amidst serene natural surroundings. Its proximity to Lake Burbury and the Iron Blow Lookout makes it an ideal spot for exploration and reflection.
