Evercreech Forest Reserve
Evercreech Forest Reserve is a lovely nature reserve located in Northern Tasmania.
There are two wonderful short walks here: the first to the "White Knights" majestic 90-metre-high white gum trees and the second to Evercreech Falls.
In the shady forest alongside the South Esk River, there are picnic tables, toilets, a shelter shed, and barbecues.
Evercreech is one of the 60 Great Short Walks
of Tasmania
The Walk - 1 kilometre - 20 Minutes - Grade 2
This short and easy wander to see the ‘White Knights’ is along a well-maintained track with boardwalk sections through a beautiful forest.
The magnificent "White Knights" are giant white gums of the Eucalyptus viminalis species and are the tallest of their type in Australia, reaching over 90 metres in height.
You can take a shorter 5-minute walk to see them or continue the loop walk by heading up the hill, where you will have lovely elevated views over the forest. This section is a little steeper, with steps along the way.
