DAY 50 17th September Pemberton to Walpole

DAY 50

17th September
Pemberton to Walpole


Stayed in a lovely park at the back of town. Very bushy and nice walks through the forest. Went for a drive around a forest loop and saw The Bicentennial Tree which Paul and Nev climbed to the top of. Then we went back to Pemberton for the 10.45am Pemberton Tram Ride through the forest and over some old wooden bridges high above the rivers and brooks. Interesting commentary about the logging history and the plants of the forest.
Pemberton Tram Trip
This took us to 12.30pm and Nev and I headed to Northcliffe for lunch. We passed a logging truck loading logs only two can fit on each jinker.
 They are massive.Their slogan is ”Where the hell is Northcliffe”. It is a tiny little place with a lovely craft shop with wooden furniture. Met the others and continued to Walpole via the Bi centennial tree for two nights.
