Grandis picnic area — Attraction in New South Wales

Bearing the name of the tallest tree in NSW and over 400 years old, there is no doubt that the trip was well worth it! Looking at the photos does not even give you a fraction of the impressiveness comparing to standing right in front of it. It might not shock you as a sequoia, but definitely worth a look. The amenities on site are pretty good. The only disappointment was that it is not possible to have direct access to the tree as a Quarantine area has been established around the tree to protect it from diseases.
