HUON RIVER & TAHUNE AIR WALK

 

We camped at Franklin on the Huon River for 2 nights at $10 a night.  Mike launched the boat & we went cruising down the river (which is salt water), had a fish but just caught little flathead & bream.  It is also lovely here too.  There is a playground so girls are happy.

4/01/12  At the Tahune Air Walk we saw the Big Tree, which was a monster!  6.2 meters diameter & 87 meters tall & shrinking. We could not fit it in a photo.  We walked through the park which had 2 long suspension bridges.  The Air Walk bridge is 600 meters long suspended 37 meters high among the massive trees.  At the end it hangs out over the river.  It is a bit freaky.

Nice & High! Windy scuds would blow up every now & then.

We also did the Eaglehawk Hand gliding.  It pulled back up the valley & then let you go. The girls loved it!
