Cape Sorell Lighthouse

Cradle Country & The West


Located 12km southwest of Strahan at the harbour’s southern head, this 40m-high lighthouse dates from 1899 and is purportedly the second highest in Australia. You’ll need a boat to cross the heads, unless you can find an accommodating fishing boat to take you over. A return walk of two to three hours along a vehicle track from the jetty at Macquarie Heads leads to the lighthouse.
