Stacks Bluff, Mountain summit in northeast Tasmania, Australia.

Stacks Bluff rises to 1527 meters with exposed dolerite columns forming a prominent cliff line visible throughout the Tasmanian Midlands region.

The Ben Lomond nation of Aboriginal Tasmanians, including Plangermaireener and Plindermairhemener clans, established campsites near Lake Youl and moved through river valleys around the mountain.

John Glover sketched the region in the 1830s, while mining activities for tin and tungsten in the late 1800s led to the establishment of Rossarden and Storys Creek townships.

The hiking trail spans 9.5 kilometers return with a 704-meter elevation gain, requiring careful navigation through boulder fields and alpine zones.

During cold weather, the mountain experiences graupel, a rare Australian phenomenon where water droplets freeze onto snow crystals.
