Mt Field National Park is Tasmania's oldest and most loved NP. The park has a wide variety of scenic features and wildlife and offers a great range of facilities for visitors. Few other National Parks in Australia offer such a diversity in vegetation, ranging from tall swamp gum forests and massive tree ferns at the base of the mountain. The park essentially has two visitor sections. The first, near the park entrance, includes picnic facilities and the famous Russell Falls. Stunning walks through enormous fern forests and some of the tallest trees in the world are available in this area.
