Cape Tourville Lighthouse, Lighthouse on the Freycinet Peninsula, Tasmania, Australia

Cape Tourville Lighthouse is a round white tower 3.4 metres tall, standing 38 metres above the sea on a granite headland in Freycinet National Park. The headland top was levelled by blasting to create its base and a parking area.

Cape Tourville Lighthouse was completed in 1971 by private contractors Hurburgh and Olbrich, at the same time as the new lighthouse at Point Home near Triabunna. Both were built to guide bulk carriers loading wood chips at the Triabunna mill. It replaced the Cape Forestier Lighthouse, which stood nearby on Lemon Rock.

The lighthouse was built alongside the new Point Home light near Triabunna to guide bulk carriers loading wood chips from the Triabunna mill. Its 1971 construction replaced the Cape Forestier lighthouse on Lemon Rock, another headland of the Freycinet Peninsula.

To reach the lighthouse, visitors must enter the Freycinet National Park area through Coles Bay and travel on unsealed roads. Sturdy footwear is recommended since walking paths cross rocky terrain.

The lighthouse stands on a granite headland whose top was levelled by blasting to make room for the tower and a car park. It was built in 1971 by the private contractors Hurburgh and Olbrich, and the access road and powerline were cut through virgin eucalypt forest with minimal disruption to the national park.
