Starting from Scotts Peak Dam Road, Southwest, this return journey takes you to Mount Eliza via a singular track, which includes some clambering near the end. Nestled beside the towering presence of Mount Anne --Southwest Tasmania's highest summit-- stands Mount Eliza, presenting a panoramic spectacle of the region's mountainous terrain and crystalline lakes. The well-marked trail ascends gradually, offering unobstructed vistas amidst the sparse vegetation. A brief detour leads to the High Camp Hut, a welcome respite before tackling the demanding ascent over rugged boulders. The rugged expanse unfolds to reveal a tapestry of jagged peaks enveloping Lake Pedder below. Upon reaching the Eliza Plateau, hikers are treated to sweeping views of the Western and Eastern Arthur Ranges, with the serene expanse of Lake Judd below. Take a moment to recharge amidst the pandani and the resilient cushion plants before retracing your steps, mindful of the exposed terrain that may become a problem on sunny days. Let us begin by acknowledging the Tommeginne people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
