Short distance from Russell Falls, this waterfall also descends over horizontal marine Permian siltstone benches, while the vertical faces of the falls are composed of resistant sandstone layers. The waterfall was named in honour of Lady Clara Barron, the wife of Sir Harry Barron, a former Governor of Tasmania.
The Lady Barron Falls, a tiered–cascade waterfall on the Lady Barron Creek, is located in the Central Highlands region of Tasmania, Australia.

A three tier waterfall, one of the few waterfalls anywhere in Tasmania that have that sort of effect, with an easily accessible lookout where eventually the waterfall will flow underneath that lookout.

The main lookout overlooking Lake Fenton with numerous mountains surrounded, and a gateway to numerous walking trails beginning from there.
One of the easiest lakes to get to, and one of the larger ones too, the views of Lake Fenton are unique in all sorts of ways. Has carpark nearby, and is a minute or two away from the road via foot.
Follow Lake Dobson Rd as it climbs 800 metres up, and walk the Lake Dobson circuit. A short walk by a charming lake, with some magnificent views of Mt Field, and, perhaps, some snow.
Mount Mawson is one of two major locations in Tasmania (with the other being Ben Lomond National Park) known for its snowsports, more particularly skiing and snowboarding. The slope drops seventy metres from 1300 m to 1230 m, suitable for both beginners or intermediate skiers. The same applies to snowboarders. For those wanting practice cross country skiing, but not comparable to Perisher or Thredbo.
