The Great Forest Park Guide
Get to know your Great Forest
The Great Forest Park Guide gives you the maps and tools to explore the Great Forests and create your own adventures.
Locals and researchers have mapped out a plan to declare the Great Forest a National Park adding 355,000 hectares to the existing 170,000 hectares making a 525,000 hectare sanctuary that future generations can enjoy. Projections show an increase of 400,000 annual visitors, 750 new full-time jobs, and an economic boost to the local economy of over $70 million each year.
The guide book is full of contributions from environmental gurus such as Professor David Lindenmayer, Rick Ridgeway, Dr. Kita Ashman, Steve Meacher and Brett Mifsud.
And it’s full of trails and quirky interviews from adventurers including Erchana Murray-Bartlett, Mitch Docker, Majell Backhausen, Beau Miles, Liam O’Connor, Mike Hampton and Sean Marler. And a huge thank you to Chris Taylor, Sarah Rees and Cam Suttie for their beautiful photos.
