Description

The picturesque Mount Roland, occupying the central part of Fossey Mountains, is a popular day walk destination. The mountain range gives panoramic views over the town of Sheffield and its fertile agricultural plains to the north and the ravines carved by the Mersey River to the south.

Extensive karst systems are a feature of the southern area around Mole Creek before the land rises steeply into the Great Western Tiers. The River Forth in the western part forms a chain of lakes used to generate electricity and divides the range.

Lake Barrington is the venue for an internationally acclaimed rowing course.

The design of the Tasmap 1:50 000 Map Series provides a clear and accurate portrayal of topographic information, with symbols and map content giving enhanced depiction of buildings, hill shading and a simplified classification of vegetation.

Each map covers a 30 x 40 kilometre area with a 1 kilometre grid based on the Map Grid of Australia (MGA94) which utilises the Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 (GDA94). At this scale, 1 millimetre on the map represents 50 metres on the ground.
