On your journey between Derwent Bridge and Bronte Park, don’t miss the Wall in the Wilderness. This amazing creation is a work of art in progress. Wood sculptor Greg Duncan is carving a panorama in wood panels depicting the history of the Tasmanian highlands. The scale is incredible – when it’s finished, which will take an estimated 10 years, the scene will be 100m long.
Though the tableau is large-scale, it’s carved with breathtaking skill and detail – from the veins in the workers’ hands, to the creases in their shirts, to the hair of their beards. The Wall is 2km east of Derwent Bridge, and is definitely worth making time to check out.
