Acesso
If driving from Hobart, drive to Fingal, take a left on Mathinna Road, another left onto B42 after crossing the bridge and take a right onto C429 Tower Hill Road which is well signposted. Tower Hill Road is a well compacted gravel road with the odd deeper pothole here and there but most cars will make it up with ease. Follow Tower Hill Road for 14.8km and take a left onto Cabin Road. For the bouldering, follow Cabin Road for 3.8km and park in the bend of the road on the right, you'll see the boulders already. There is an unused Forestry gate at around 3.5kms in which you can open and close behind you. If driving down from Launceston, head to Mathinna, drive south on C429 Golden Gate Road, then right onto Tower Hill Road until you get to Cabin Road to your right.
