This place is well reviewed. The only things to add are, 1. Take care if you are driving as there are lots of foreign tourists driving on twisty roads. 2. It is much colder than Hobart (10 degrees…Full review by Richard T

You can drive, catch a bus or walk. The drive for the passenger's is stunning. The driver needs to concentrate as a couple of hairpin bends but from the bottom about a 20min drive. You can stop half way, park and walk to some amazing rock formations and views. Have been up in winter, very cold, need a down jacket, gloves, beanie etc. Even in summer usually cool and a breeze. Look from Hobart and if clear go for it. If cloudly wait until it clears.
