About NO DAMS the blockade

Queenstown, Tasmania

Take an intrepid 4x4 journey deep into the Franklin/Gordon World Heritage area. Unlocking the gate to real wilderness we take you on an exclusive trip far beyond the normal range of public access. See remnants of the NO DAMS era blockade that saved this wonderland from development. Hear the stories and enjoy a picnic snack where the would-be dam builders were stopped. Extend the adventure and we can really get serious and 4x4 over Mt McCall to the Franklin River and the proposed number 2 Dam site. And just maybe see a passing rafting expedition.

From $55.00 to $380.00
