The Barn Bluff is a mountain in the west of the Australian state of Tasmania . It is located in the northern part of the Cradle Mountain Lake St. Clair National Park south of Cradle Mountain and forms the border of the catchment areas of the Murchison River and the Mackintosh River .
At 1,559 m, the fourth highest mountain on the island is 14 m higher than the much better known Cradle Mountain.
It is often covered in snow, sometimes in summer too. The isolated mountain can be seen from most parts of the national park and is therefore one of its main attractions. It is a popular destination for mountaineers and hikers.
