Skiing in Tasmania takes place in the high country of the state of Tasmania, Australia, during the Southern Hemisphere winter. Cross country skiing is possible within the Tasmanian Wilderness and two small downhill ski-fields have been developed at Ben Lomond and Mount Mawson.
Mount Ossa is the highest point on the island at 1,617 metres (5,305 ft) above sea level, but Tasmania has eight mountains exceeding 1,500 metres (4,900 ft).
