The Bicentennial Tree is now open for climbing to the first platform which is 20m above the forest floor - upgrades are still in progress.
The Bicentennial Tree was pegged in 1988 as part of Australia's bicentennial celebrations. Although it was built for visitors to climb and appreciate, it has been used on occasions as a fire lookout when the aircraft were unable to fly.
If you'd prefer to keep your feet on the ground, you can find out more about fire lookout trees in the information shelter or have a picnic in the karri forest.
You can also follow the Lorikeet Stroll where you're likely to see splendid fairy-wrens, white-breasted robins and grey fantails. When the karri forest is flowering, the chatter of the purple-crowned lorikeets in the canopy can be deafening. This 200m return, Class 2 trail is an easy walk.
