Lake Pedder’s Former Glory
With its distinctive pink quartzite beaches, Lake Pedder was an extraordinary glacial lake at the foot of the Frankland Range in Tasmania’s deep southwest. The impressive beach was 3 km long and wide enough to land the light planes that chartered small tourist groups. Lake Pedder was then flooded in 1972 for a hydroelectric scheme – and hasn’t been the same since. The Lake Pedder Restoration Committee is now on the front lines of campaigning for the restoration of Tasmania’s jewel.
