The turn off to Ben Lomond is 42 kilometres from Launceston via St Leonards on the Blessington Road. 14 kilometres along a well made gravel road, Jacobs Ladder is reached under towering dolerite cliffs.  A spectacular drive then ascends Jacobs Ladder.

A lookout platform has been built at the top of the ladder providing superb views.  A short walk.

We re-visited the mountain on a superb sunny early winter's day.  The pictures tell the story.
