Visitor Experience Statement The Walls of Jerusalem is a majestic place in the heart of an alpine wilderness, and part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Unlike Tasmania’s other alpine national parks, this park is roadless, yet still relatively accessible. This makes it an adventure destination suited to a wide range of self-reliant, active travellers who are attracted to its wild beauty, its remoteness and the exotic biblically-named landmarks. The ancient pencil pine forests of the Walls of Jerusalem with their grassy understorey are not found as extensively anywhere else in the world. Some pencil pines live up to 1,200 years. They form one of the lasting memories that visitors will take with them. They exist on a tenuous foothold in this wildfire free area. Keeping fire out of this stunning place will require visitors to treat the area with reverence as, without special care and consideration, the Walls of Jerusalem will be changed forever. After a steep walk in, visitors are rewarded with scenic vistas that mix the ancient pencil pine forests, mounds of green cushion plants, chains of alpine lakes and imposing dolerite peaks. The renowned central Walls area, including King Davids Peak, Solomons Throne and the Temple, can be variously shrouded in mist, blanketed in snow or standing stark against a blue sky. Standing in this place carved out by the passage of glaciers, visitors can imagine what it might have been like for the Aboriginal people of this area thousands of years ago, travelling through and living off the land, in a scene largely unchanged to the present day. The area’s historic huts remind visitors of Tasmania’s more recent heritage and the stories of snarers and cattlemen. In their footsteps, adventurous anglers seek some of the wildest trout in the world. 1 Walls of Jerusalem National Park Recreation Zone Plan 2013 There are different attractions throughout the year. In summer, blankets of scoparia are in spectacular bloom across the valleys. Wombats, wallabies, and other wildlife are abundant and will thrill those not familiar with Australia’s unique animals. Deciduous beech turns the hills golden in some areas during autumn. In winter, travel by skis or snowshoes is sometimes possible on a thick cover of snow. Visitors to the Walls are generally self-reliant and will be able to choose from a variety of destinations and routes for bushwalking, depending on their preferences and levels of experience. Visitors’ experiences are designed to be compatible with the sensitive natural and heritage values of the park. Visitors can choose from a variety of destinations and routes, but most stay at the overnight campsites at Wild Dog Creek and Dixons Kingdom area. Both these campsites are designed to minimise impact

The rocky landscape here has been Friday, June 18, 2021 Page 1 of 8 shaped by glaciation, the rasping of ice across the bedrock leaving countless hollows in which lakes and tarns have formed. Glacial erratics are common, and the soil is poor and peaty. At 1040 metres above sea level, the area is subject to extreme cold in winter, being swept by rain- and snow-bearing south-westerly winds. Much of the Central Plateau near Lake Malbena was burned by bushfire in 1961 (Binks 2006, p. 117), and Halls Island, on which the hut stands, has a complex fire history (Hackett 2021b).

  • DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28
    DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 Minister’s message It is my pleasure to release the Draft Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 as the guiding document for the Inland Fisheries Service in managing this valuable resource on behalf of all Tasmanians for the next 10 years. The plan creates opportunities for anglers, improves access, ensures sustainability and encourages participation. Tasmania’s tradition with trout fishing spans over 150 years. It is enjoyed by local and visiting anglers in the beautiful surrounds of our State. Recreational fishing is a pastime and an industry; it supports regional economies providing jobs in associated businesses and tourism enterprises. A sustainable trout fishery ensures ongoing benefits to anglers and the community as a whole. To achieve sustainable fisheries we need careful management of our trout stocks, the natural values that support them and measures to protect them from diseases and pest fish. This plan simplifies regulations where possible by grouping fisheries whilst maintaining trout stocks for the future. Engagement and agreements with land owners and water managers will increase access and opportunities for anglers. The Tasmanian fishery caters for anglers of all skill levels and fishing interests. This plan helps build a fishery that provides for the diversity of anglers and the reasons they choose to fish.

The plan covers all areas of responsibility for which the Inland Fisheries Service (IFS) has statutory control; freshwater native species, freshwater recreational fisheries, and freshwater commercial fisheries. The plan also makes several recommendations on land management issues for consideration by the Parks and Wildlife Service (PWS). The area covered by the plan includes the Central Plateau Conservation Area west of the Lake Highway and the Walls of Jerusalem National Park, both of which lie within the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Environment This section examines the impacts of users (primarily anglers) on the environment and specifically water quality, and how these impacts can be minimised while maintaining angling opportunities. Management prescriptions focus on monitoring and review of water quality and the impacts of boating, wading and weir construction in various waters, and where necessary, implementing remediation measures. An information and education approach with the particular emphasis on the use of signage, will play an important role. Establishment of alternative boating access outside of the Western Lakes, development of a boating code of practice and review of current boating regulations will assist in minimising boating impacts. Additionally, the IFS will encourage and support studies that examine the impacts of boating and wading.
