Giant tree re-opened for climbing

The Bicentennial Tree in WA’s Pemberton region has reopened for climbing to the 20-metre platform.

It’s the first step in a program of State funded upgrades at the Gloucester and Bicentennial Trees. Both were closed in 2023 to allow for structural investigations and upgrades to the viewing platforms.

The Southern Forests are a spectacular destination with stunning karri and jarrah forests and plenty of places to visit and explore. Park entry fees have been waived at Gloucester National Park and people are encouraged to experience the tree canopy ropes and zip-line course offered there by Aerial Adventure Pemberton.
