The 5-Day Forest Giants Walk also visits some of Fraser Island’s beautiful lakes – Lake Wabby, Lake Garawongera and Lake McKenzie, all of which we camp nearby. However, the focus of this tour is on the tall giants of Fraser Island. You will visit the spectacular Valley of the Giants and camp in the shadow of some of the most brilliant tree specimens on the island. We will see the famous arboreal monument that is the Giant Tallowwood with a girth of nearly 4metres. This walking tour allows you to experience a myriad of landforms and vegetation types as they vary considerably from the closed rainforest, satinay and tallowwood, to the more open blackbutt forest of the ridges and central dunes to the coastal dunes and the spectacular Hammerstone Sandblow which encroaches on the famous Lake Wabby. The walks between campsites are a little longer, the area more remote and walking conditions slightly more difficult but still varying from easy to medium. |
