Gordon River

From Strahan there are boat and seaplane trips to the lower course of the Gordon River, where there are still unspoiled expanses of rain forest, with idyllic waterfalls and Huon pines. There is a very rewarding Rainforest Walk. The tracts of dense and impenetrable rain forest and the tumultuous rivers Franklin and Gordon, untamed by any dams, are particularly impressive when seen from the air. There are also sightseeing flights to the junction of the Franklin and the Gordon at Sir John Falls, over Frenchmans Cap and to Queenstown.
