The Big Tree

Absolutely stunning ancient River Red Gum, well over 500 years old. Imagine how many of these beauties existed before white settlement. Make sure you give it a big hug and feel the grandeur.

It was such a privilege to be under such an incredible part of the Dja Dja Wurrung birthing tree. My friend and I, who are both women, were in AWE of how many women squatted and birthed their babies under the BIG, TWISTED limbs. Its branches are so beautiful and big.... hollows give space to the animals of the regions birds, possums, or whatever creatures are native to country

Amazing tree...if it could talk...🥰🥰

What a stunning tree.
The size is just mind blowing. The branches are bigger than large trees.
Well worth a look. Hopefully it will be with us for many more years to come.

Fascinating history and tree.

Fabulous old river red gum aged between 500 -1000 years
A must see when passing through Guilford Victoria

Guildford Vic is where Ron Baŕassi lived.
Must visit this tree.
Go to the shop and have a drink at the pub.
Enjoy!

It really is a very big tree

It is listed as a tree of State significance on the National Trust's Register of Significant Trees of Victoria. Loved it! You have to hug a tree like this when you see it. It's between 500 and 1000 years old!

Absolutely brilliant. This is an Aboriginal Ring Tree. Look closely and you can see the backwards branch which is also fused to an upper branch. It was formed when this was just a sapling hundreds of years ago. Very rare to have living examples today.

The big tree is an aborreal cathedral. A multicultural avian and animal metropolis. The big tree is a testament to the people who put their live and energy into saving it for their own and future generations. I live the big tree. We need more big trees.

It is worth viewing, unbelievable history, just one giant of a tree, not in height, but in the lower part.

A tree so old it's branches have joined together. A beautiful spot to stop and break your drive with playground and public toilets.

It's a big tree 🤣👍

Well worth a visit the tree is so big and old the diameter is massive.
😮👌

Beautiful tree, restful rest stop. Toilet and picnic tables. Small playground. Tennis Court. Shade.

Great tree. Good information provided.
Highly recommended for a visit

👍

Magnificent specimen. Think I found "the window "which is formed by 4 branches.

Great place for a stop and walk while travelling, good parking area .
