Gordon Dam Wall

And just think about this when you are walking along the 192 metre length of the wall the height of the dam is taller than the sydney harbour bridge and the water it holds back is more than the entire sydney harbour.

Gordon dam wall. Gordon dam wall is a must see for any visitor to the south west and descending the stairs on to the face of the gordon dam is a must for any adventurous traveller. Fascinating to see we walked down some steep steps to the dam wall and along it. Standing 140 metres high the gordon dam is the worlds highest commercial abseil.

Feels amazing to stand on the wall looking down. This massive dam stands over 140 metres in height and the concrete wall features an arch both horizontally and vertically which makes for great pictures from the proper angle. 3500 x 2343.

The gordon dam wall constructed with 154 thousand cubic metres 54 10 6 cu ft of concrete is 198 metres 650 ft long and 140 metres 460 ft high making it the tallest dam in tasmania and the fifth tallest in australia. The dam is located near strathgordon in the heart of tasmanias magnificent south west wilderness. The day begins at 9am when we meet you at the dam around two and a half hour drive from hobart.

The sheer size of this dam as you look down on it boggles the mind especially when you look across and see the tiny ladders going down on the other side with tunnels cut in to the wall to descend internally in some sections. The day begins with a two and a half hour drive from the state capital through the south west wilderness known for its unspoilt scenery rugged peaks wild rivers and unique flora and fauna. Unique gordon dam posters designed and sold by artists.

Gordon dam wall is a must see for any visitor to the south west and descending the stairs on to the face of the gordon dam is a must for any adventurous traveller. I had seen pictures of the dam before but hadnt seen the infrastructure that people climb up and tunnels in the cliff face very interesting to see up close.

Shop affordable wall art to hang in dorms bedrooms offices or anywhere blank walls arent welcome. Pictures dont do this place justice it really must be seen to be believed. There were actually people standing at the bottom which looked like ants from the top.
