The Walls of Jerusalem National Park forms a part of the Tasmanian
Wilderness World Heritage Area. As the park is remote and not accessible
via road, the Walls retains its wilderness character. There are no facilities
for casual visitors, while bushwalkers are required to be well-equipped and
experienced in the often harsh Tasmanian conditions. As with all natural
areas, it is important that bushwalkers follow miminal impact guidelines.
See our "Essential
Bushwalking Guide and Trip Planner".
The region is an alpine wilderness dominated by dolerite peaks and alpine
vegetation. The Walls of Jerusalem National Park is very exposed to the extremes of Tasmania's changeable weather.
