Ben Lomond National Park (Jacobs Ladder) - Tasmania.

Whow!! Ben Lomond, with its imposing & precipitous cliffs, rises above rural pastures & forestry land. Visible over much of the northern midlands, this alpine plateau is home to a wide variety of alpine plant communities & animals. In seasons of good snow fall the main focus is on downhill skiing in the state. It's highest point the summit Legges Tor (1572M) and is the second highest peak in Tasmania.
A beautiful & challenging drive (by Steve) reaches a plateau after a series of hairpin bends know as Jacobs ladder. The dramatic landscape of dolerite rock columns & scree slopes.

Dolerite rock Columns. 

The roads not very wide and there's a huge drop of my side!!  

Seriously look at Jacob's Ladder!

Stunning. 

Incredible topography. 

It's best if you don't meet any other traffic. 

The Alpine Village. 

Views in the village.

Looks like a nice place to stay.
