Mount Wellington

I'm in Hobart for the weekend and booked in on an "adventure walk" up Mount Wellington this morning - Mount Wellington is on the edge of Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, and rises to 1271m over the city.  (More information is available at: http://www.wellingtonpark.org.au/)

I booked through http://www.mtwellingtonwalks.com.au/, and although my heart was definitely pumping at times and my legs felt the climb, it was a wonderful morning (even though it was very chilly at the top!)

O'Gradys Falls


A nice place for a quick stop and a refreshing drink from the water fall.



Getting closer to the top


A view from quite high up the mountain.




At the top....


A view from the very top of the Mountain looking down at the lookout building.



A photo of my brother and me at one of the original shelters built at the top of the mountain.
