Tarraleah is a small town in the Central Highlands of Tasmania 126 km north-west of the state capital Hobart, and slightly closer to Queenstown. The township was built in the 1930s by the Hydro Electric Commission to house Tasmania's pioneering hydro electricity officers and management.〔 - see chapter 3 ''On the Upper Derwent'' - pp.76-101 regarding Tarraleah..〕 The Post Office opened on 11 October 1934, and was named Tarraleah in 1935. The area is noted for its alpine lakes and mountains, and many hydro-electric dams, canals and giant steel pipeways. Tarraleah is located along the Lyell Highway, and is only a short distance from both Lake King William and Bronte Lagoon. Lake Lipootah and Bradys Lake are also close by. After a multimillion-dollar redevelopment,〔http://www.tarraleahlodge.com/about_the_lodge.html〕 the former Hydro construction village has become an estate that comprises Tarraleah Lodge with accommodation, recreation, and dining options. Fresh water trout fishing, boating, bushwalking, mountain biking and kayaking are all popular activities in and around the township. Tarraleah is also home to a high altitude golf course. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tarraleah」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
