Tyndall Range

The Tyndall Range is a part of the West Coast Range (Tasmania) of Western Tasmania. It is also the location of the Tyndall Regional Reserve a reserve that is the western buffer zone for the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park World Heritage Area.[1]

The main focal point for the range is Mount Tyndall which lies at the northern part of the range. The whole range western slopes can be viewed from the Anthony Road, while the plateau like formation of the Tyndalls is a road free area requiring viewing either from the air, or by foot.

The area is north of Mount Sedgwick.

The 'Tyndalls' have a number of glacial lakes, the larger being Lake Huntley, Lake Rolleston, Lake Tyndall and Lake Matthew.

The Tyndalls lie south east of the Henty Gold Mine, and Hydro Tasmania dam on the Henty River - and south of Lake Makintosh, Lake Murchison and Tullah.
