About Forest Walk Hike
The Forest Walk Hike is through one of the most beautiful indigenous forests, up to balancing rocks and towards Eagle's Nest.
Many species of trees, interesting and colourful birds, insects and spiders are found here. Lichens, mosses, fungi and orchids adorn the trunks and branches of trees, while mushrooms and ferns grow among the fallen branches and leaves.
This is prime hiking country, with forests and trails and more than 250 species of birds. Other activities in the area include: canoe trips, horse trails, golf, dolphin and whale watching and some excellent fishing.
