About Ross Tasmania
Ross awarded winner of the 2007 Tasmanian Tidy Towns!!
As you wander the tree-lined streets of Ross, you will be transported to a time long gone but not forgotten. The bridge at Ross, possibly the most beautiful of its kind left in the world, was built by convict stonemasons in 1836.
Many of Ross' historic old stone buildings remain, still in use today.
A picturesque village with a strong history. In the warmer months Ross is bustling with car clubs, train visits and many organisations. With activities all year round, there is always something happening at Ross.
Ross was the 2008 winner of the national "Keep Australia Beautiful" award for the best preserved historical village in Australia!
