CATHEDRAL FIG TREE
What it is?
Named for the cathedral like formation of the root system, this 500 year old, 50 metre tall tree is a sight to behold. The track around the tree is only 300m long, so it shouldn’t take long, depending on how long you stop in awe of this magnificent giant. The Cathedral Fig Tree is in Danbulla National Park
