FLORENTINE VALLEY
the Florentine Valley holds a wealth of giant trees that are even less known than those of the Styx Valley. IT is another example of the true giant tree potential of Tasmania with almost 20 known giants. But the future of the Florentine as a site for big tree hunting is set to explode with dozens of LiDar hits yet to be explored.
Situated at the same access point at the Western Styx Valley, and just 5km out of the mountain biking destination ofMaydena, the Florentine receives only a small percentage of the tourists that it deserves. Home to the deepest cave system in Australia at 400m, this area’s geology and forest ecology are of world- significance
