Introduction | Destined to be the summer spot for cliff-side seduction, sporting a twin tiered dolerite cliff, beautiful river views, a swimming hole and grassy meadows. Just a pity it isn’t bigger! | ||||||
Access | Take the Southern Outlet from Hobart via Kingston, towards Huonville. About 8 km south of Kingston, turn L onto the Sandfly Road (C622). Drive another km or so to the Recreation Grounds on the L and park. Follow the track that starts beside the Old Fire Brigade's shed, until it ends at the crag on the river. |
