The Needles

2 hour return. Start at car park across from “Highest Elevation” sign. Moderate - Difficult.

The Needles is a three-kilometre trail, which begins at the highest point on the Gordon River Road, en route to Lake Pedder. The impressive size and haunting nature of this trail is realised as the harsh grey face of the first needle like outcrop comes into view, early in the walk. The trail is slightly over-grown so expect some resistance while paving your way to the top.
