If you'd like to see an impressive tree, go to Belair National Park and take the road up to Long Gully. Once you get past the tennis courts and playground, continue along the road until you see on the LH side a magnificent cork oak (Quercus suber). This is a very old tree, as the sign in front will tell you. It is old, huge, gnarled and impressive in every way. There is another of these trees further along on Saddle Hill Road. It is rather more affected by the ravages of age with some beautiful bracket fungi. Best to walk or go by bike as you'll find it easier to spot these and other interesting things.
