Located 50km south-east of Launceston, Ben Lomond National Park is accessible via the Blessington Road C401 near Upper Blessington. Wheel chains must be carried between June and September - they are not available on the mountain, but can be rented or purchased from outlets in major centres.
If travelling at night, please watch out for native animals!
During the ski season McDermott's Coaches provide a daily shuttle service to and from Launceston. (http://www.mcdermotts.com.au/)
Also, a shuttle bus service runs from the snowline to the top car park daily within season. The service starts from around 9.00am daily in season and is a great option if you prefer to leave the snow chains at home. Adults $12.00 / Child/Concession $8.00.
