Tullah, Tasmania

Overview

Nestled on the shores of Lake Rosebery at the base of Mount Farrell, Tullah is a tranquil village steeped in history and natural beauty. Once known as Mount Farrell, this remote settlement was originally accessible only by foot, horse, or the Mount Farrell Tramway-now preserved as the charming Wee Georgie Wood Tourist Railway.

Tullah’s role in the construction of the Pieman Hydroelectric Power Scheme in the 1970s brought the village to life. Today, Tullah invites visitors to explore its untouched landscapes by foot, bike, boat, or kayak. With its peaceful atmosphere and friendly locals, it’s the perfect place to relax, recharge, and uncover hidden gems. Whether hiking Mount Farrell’s trails or enjoying a reflective moment by Lake Rosebery, Tullah offers a slower pace of life and stunning natural surroundings.

Please note, there is no petrol station in Tullah, so plan ahead. However, there are plenty of places to pause, enjoy a drink, and take in the views of Tasmania’s magnificently rugged West Coast.

Tullah is an 80-minute drive (110 km) south of Burnie.
