Lighthouses

 

Cape du Couedic Lighthouse, Kangaroo Island, Australia

With its far-flung location on the southwestern coast of Kangaroo Island, Cape du Couedic lighthouse wasn’t accessible by land when it was first built. Instead, materials and equipment were transported to the lighthouse by boat and hauled up using a flying fox winching system, which was initially powered by horses. Today, the lighthouse is fully automated and accessible by road.
