Scotts Peak Dam Road
Scotts Peak Dam Road Is the most southerly point of road access into the South West Tasmania region.
It was built specifically by Hydro Tasmania to facilitate the construction of dams for the flooding of Lake Pedder.[1][2]
It was an unsealed road built to connect between the dam works and the Gordon River Road.
It is currently utilised by people seeking to access the South Coast Tasmania region of the South West Wilderness.
