Scaling the World's Tallest Climbing Tree - No Safety Gear! Dave Evans Bicentennial Tree, Pemberton

Pemberton, Western Australia is home to some of the world's tallest trees. The Karri forests are absolutely magnificent and one of my favourite places to holiday. In the past, a number of these trees were turned into lookouts so people could watch for bushfires. Today, 3 lookout trees still exist - the Diamond Tree, the Gloucester Tree and the Bicentennial Tree - and until recently all could be climbed by the general public (the Diamond Tree is now closed due to concerns about the tree rotting). I have previously climbed all of the trees multiple times but it is still a massive thrill as there is no safety line - the climb is mostly accomplished on metal rungs driven into the tree to make a spiral ladder around the trunk. The top of each tree has a lookout hut with amazing views over the surrounding forest. The Dave Evans Bicentennial Tree is the tallest of the three at 75m and I believe it is the tallest tree in the world open for the public to climb. The climb is made up of 165 pegs and then a series of ladders at the top. I wouldn't recommend it if you are scared of heights, but if you aren't, climbing a Karri is a unique experience you won't soon forget!
