Lake Rowallan

Lake Cethana is a hidden treasure in Tasmania’s northwest, offering stunning scenery, deep water for boating, and incredible trout fishing. Just upstream from Lake Barrington, this peaceful spot is perfect for anglers and water enthusiasts looking for the perfect Tassie escape! A visit to Lake Cethana isn’t complete without taking in the incredible Cethana Dam. Constructed between 1967 and 1971, this 110-meter-high rockfill dam was a marvel of its time and earned a National Engineering Landmark Award in 2001. At the dam’s lookout, you’ll not only enjoy breathtaking views of the lake but also spot the towering penstocks that channel water to nearby Wilmot Power Station—a true showcase of hydropower ingenuity. For those wanting to stay lakeside, the Lorinna Campground on the lake’s shore is ideal for self-sufficient campers seeking a quiet escape. Whether you're here for the fishing, the boating, or to marvel at one of Tasmania’s engineering icons, Lake Cethana is well worth a visit. Here in Tasmania, our lakes don’t just offer stunning scenery; they’re also the powerhouse of our renewable energy… hydropower! Lake Cethana is a perfect example, where breathtaking views meet sustainable energy generation.

The Top Place is a mountain retreat nestled in Tasmania’s heartland beneath the majestic crags of Mother Cummings Peak and the Great Western Tiers. Five accommodation suites give elevated views over farmland in one direction, and bushland in the other, replete with wilderness walks for beginners through to the seasoned hiker. More than just a place to sleep, The Top Place is a place to spend some time.
