Guide to 4WD Tracks Tasmania Off Road Tassie
Tassie 4WD Tracks
Long Marsh Dam has a rich history as it was the site where local landowners had planned to use convict labour somewhere around the early 1840’s. However, a government decree in 1844 stated that convicts had to be paid for their labour by the landowner, however, they refused and the convicts walked off the job meaning the project was never finished. An important part of this four-wheel drive trip is a walk into Long Marsh Dam, which isn't easy but is rewarding. Please prepare with good walking equipment. The Long Marsh Dam and Convict Probation Station are located on the upper Macquarie River, app.13 kilometres south of Lake Leake and north of Tooms Lake.
