Mt Field nationl park

Back down near the Derwent river in a little town called Westerway we stayed in the Mt Field National park camp to do a highly recommended walk and to test out Bess’s new shoes. It was a 6.7k walk through some beautiful rain forest,a couple of beautiful water falls and a lot of steps. The shoes were perfect and the walk was very very interesting. At one part of the forest the trees were between 70 and 100m tall. A girth of about 5 to 7m round, dead straight until near the top where they branched out all over the place making them very vulnerable to the wind and not a long life span. Seeing a tree that size and length lying on the ground made you think, which way would I have run?? But all in all a great walk.Read more
