Black River

On Friday we moved from Strahan to black river campsite.  On our second day we moved around the Tarkine, and we did lots of walks. So here goes, the first place we went to was Bluff Hill Point Lighthouse, at the lighthouse it was a spectacular view but, the only problem was that there were native bees, and they had a nest on the side of the lighthouse.

The second place we went to was The End of The World and the winds were wild so of course was the beach. The waves on the beach were like nothing we’ve seen on Tasmania waters.

The third place we went to was Kanunnah Bridge and at this bridge we had our lunch while watching the fast-flowing waters of the Arthur River.

The fourth place we went to was Sumac Lookout and it was a breathtaking view of the calm rivers of Arthur River. The surrounding was a cool temperate rain forest.

The fifth place we went to was Julius River. It was enchanting rainforest walks with two different settings, most of it was on board walks.

The sixth place we went to was lake Chisholm and this was a walk where we left Dad and Jett behind because no dogs were allowed on the walk to the sink hole.

The seventh place we went to was Dempster Plains and this was an unexpected view of a huge line of dead trees. The way up was a steep walk though button grass.

The eighth place we went to was Rapid River. At this river the waters were stained by tannin that went all the way to the lookout at the end.

The ninth place we went to was Milkshake Hills and here it was wet eucalypt forest. It was an easy walk in the forest.

The tenth place we went to was Tayatea Bridge. At this bridge the waters had been over the bridge and the river was called Arthur River!

The first day we were on Black River campsite we went to a hill called THE NUT! We got a nice surprise because we went up to the top in chair lifts. At the top we did a thirty min walk around the top. We went back down the chair lifts.
