The Big Tree & Dip Falls at Mawbanna, Tasmania, Australia

If you happen to visit Stanley in Tasmania, pass by this two nature attractions in Mawbanna. Dip Falls are a magnificent, two-tiered waterfall, the water of which flows over cubic-basalt columns, formed hundreds of years ago by the cooling of the volcanic rock. After heavy rainfalls the waterfall is most impressive, as water appears to ‘bounce’ from one rock formation to another as it hits the lower tier. A further kilometre from Dip Falls, and a one kilometre walk into the wet eucalypt forest, you will find the home of the Big Tree. Estimated to be 400 years old, the tree is a ‘eucalypt oblique’, or commonly known as a ‘browntop stringybark’. The Big Tree stands at 62 metres (203 feet) tall today, it is believed to have been up to 90 metres tall at one time.

Waterfalls - Dip Falls (Tasmania)

In a Dip River Forest Reserve, some 40 km from Smithton you will find Dip Falls, a delightful double waterfall plunging into dense rainforest. These falls are very picturesque particularly during the winter months. You can view the falls from the top and the base. The walk to the base is steep, however, steps and handrails make it easier. It is about 15 min return trip. You will see hexagonal columns which were formed many thousands of years ago, during the cooling of molten basalt.

Dip Falls, Tasmania

A spectacular waterfall on the Dip River, south of Stanley, Tasmania. The first part of this video was taken after some good rain but in drier weather it takes on a different character with water trickling over basalt columns. It is a short but steep walk to the base of the falls but there is also a viewing platform (across the river from the car park) where you can view the upper section of the falls.

Fly fishing Australia | Styx River Tasmania

I heard about a water in Tasmania called the Styx River. I managed tag half a day onto a Hobart business trip to go looking for it. After trekking through bush and avoiding snakes, I came to one of the most beautiful rivers I've ever seen. The fish were small but perfectly formed. Just a magical place.

Giant Trees are not the only beauty of Tasmania
Tasmania's landscape changes constantly. We have been driving through a valley, with mountains soaring either side, then round the corner you find a wild coastline. That’s really the beauty of Tasmania – it crams a world of drama into its small proportions.

Wild Forests & Fauna: The BIG Tree Project Heads to the Amazon

Wild Forests and Fauna takes an exciting trip to the Peruvian Amazon to launch The BIG Tree Project. Dr. Jason Scullion, Sophia Winkler and Sam Zwicker spent 10 days on the Las Piedras River mapping the region using a drone. The goal was to assess the habitat type and quality of the forest, whilst looking for big trees. The BIG Tree Project aims to protect BIG trees through business innovation, technology and education.
