Plateau Beech Campground
Last Updated Aug 2014 | Originally suggested by Kylie
If you are looking for an isolated spot to kick back and soak up some nature and don`t mind a short walk from car to tent than this is the ideal campsite.
Set among World Heritage-listed Gondwana rainforest, this truly is a beautiful spot with plenty to offer. From ancient Coachwood and giant Antarctic beech trees and wildflowers galore, to an amazing abundance of bird life, some of which you may see or hear are log-runners, warblers, olive whistlers and yellow robins.
There is also a nice walk, take an easy 2km stroll down King Fern walking track and you will arrive at King Fern Falls and Filmy Ferns Cascades.
