Cradle Mountain is a 1,545-metre peak within Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park in Tasmania's Central Highlands.
Dove Lake, at 934 metres elevation below Cradle Mountain, is a glacially formed lake, and the Dove Lake Circuit is a strenuous return walk of about 6.5 hours involving scrambling over large boulders in places.
The Overland Track, an 80.8 km walk established in 1931, begins at Cradle Mountain and ends at Lake St Clair.
