Lyell Highway to the
Lake Highway
The Lake Highway, or A5, is a main highway and A-road in Tasmania. Although still known as the Lake Highway the official title of the road was changed in 2001 to Highland Lakes Road.
The Lake Highway branches off the Midland Highway at Melton ...
and cuts short the otherwise very long journey from the West Coast to the
Central Highlands.
The road leaves the Lyell Highway near
Bronte Park and travels overland to
Miena, on the
Great Lake. There are no settlements along its route.
The road is unsealed,
[comment on poor condition in 1992 ] and in times of heavy snow it cannot be passed.
