Ben Lomond is a mountain in the north of Tasmania, Australia.
The mountain is composed of a central massif with an extensive plateau above 1,200 metres and high outlier peaks projecting from the mountain. The highest feature on the plateau is the unimposing summit of Legges Tor, at 1572 m, on the northern aspect of the plateau. The southern end of the plateau is dominated by Stacks Bluff, 1,527 metres , which is an imposing feature that drops away to a cliffline 600 metres above the surrounding foothills. The prominent outlier peaks of Ragged Jack (1,369 metres , Mensa Moor (1,358 metres and Tower Hill (1,122 metres surround the plateau.
Ben Lomond is east of Launceston in the Ben Lomond National Park. Tasmania's premier Alpine skiing operations are located at Ben Lomond with downhill skiing facilities in the State.
Its accessibility from Launceston, together with the existence of a ski village on the plateau make Ben Lomond an all year round favourite for tourists and hikers. Access to the village and summit can be made via several walking tracks or via a zig-zag road known as Jacob's Ladder constructed in 1964. - Wikipedia.
