Information

The Gloucester Tree was chosen as a fire lookout in 1947, one of a network of lookouts built in the Karri forest between 1937 and 1952. The Gloucester Tree was named after the then Governor-General of Australia, His Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester, who was visiting Pemberton as the lookout was being built. Today, visitors can climb up the 61m to see one of the most spectacular views of the Karri forest.

You will find the Gloucester Tree just 2kms from the centre of Pemberton centre. Standard park entry fees apply for Gloucester National Park. No pets allowed. Toilets available.
