Absolutely breathtaking views of Hobart from the pinnacle on a clear day. Great snow fights can be had in the winter and it caters for any fitness level with the flat, easy and beautiful Pipeline track, to trekking up the side of the mountain for the more ambitious. The Springs is half way up the mountain and is near the Fern Tree Tavern for those wanting to rest and recharge.
