Ada Tree Rain Forest Walk, Ada

July 14, 2019

To witness one of the biggest living trees in Victoria that is estimated to be over 300 years old is an honor!! That’s right the giant Mountain Ash is said to be over 300 years old. It is also one of the largest known flowering trees in the world!!

How often do you get to see a tree in nature reaching about 76metres up to the sky with a circumference of 15metres?

For us it was a first. Not only is the destination a spectacle but also the walk from the car park through the myrtle beech forest to the Ada Tree is spectacular. It is absolutely beautiful, one of the lushest we have explored in a long time.

There are so many healthy green tree ferns which are towered by the assortment of trees. As you walk along the formed track there is signage explaining the forest.
