1 Review on “Coachwood Loop Track (0.9km)”
We loved this short walk at the Norm Jolly picnic area, on the Moonpar Forest Drive. The 800 year old tallowwood trees ( (Eucalyptus microcorys) tower above you, a popular feed tree for koalas. Coachwood are beautiful trees too, with light grey ridged trunks decorated with lichens in soft pastel shades. Fortunately you don’t need to be a tree-identification expert to enjoy this walk, as their are numerous interpretive panels to help you identify the trees and which wildlife depend on them for living hollows or a supply of nectar or leaves to eat.
