Introduction

Mount Wellington, also known as Mount Wrekin, is located in the center of Hobart, backed by the city. The snow-covered peak reaches a height of 1,271 meters, and from the top, there are columns known as organ pipes, which are one of the best places to enjoy the famous Hobart scenery. There are also many observation platforms of different heights on the mountain, including The Pinnacle at the summit and The Springs (720 meters above sea level) halfway up the mountain. On a clear morning, standing at the top of the mountain and overlooking the scenery as the first rays of sunshine light up the city below is an unparalleled feeling. Tourist buses to the summit from the city operate in the morning and afternoon, making it very convenient.
