MOUNT WELLINGTON LOOKOUT & NO VIEWS
Mount Wellington Lookout Hobart
The summit is 1,271 metres (4,170 ft) above sea level and it frequently experiences snow. Falling snow may be any month of the year. Lower sections have walking tracks and some fire trails. The lookout is about 22 kilometres (14 mi) from Hobart CBD. An enclosed summit building offers views through large glass windows which are often obstructed by cloud or fog. An outside elevated walkway gives a clearer view of Hobart city below. A distinctive feature of Mount Wellington is the cliff known as the Organ Pipes.
The final few kilometres drive to the top is steep and narrow on a sealed road. Views obstructed by cloud most of the time. Winds can on occasion be over 160 km at the summit. During winter it frequently snows in the sub zero temperatures and the mountain often receives a dusting of snow. Roadside gates may be closed occasionally in winter to stop access if deemed to dangerous to traffic.
