Fraser Island - Central Station

Located around Central Station is superb open rain forest and the home to the massive Angiopteris ferns, this species has the largest fern fronds in the world.

 

Central Station has plantations of a variety of pine tress to which give the camping ground much of its appeal and makes the ideal camping site during the holiday season.

Massive Satinay Trees can be found  in the upper catchment area of Wanggoolba Creek amid palms and rainforest. The trees are regarded as one of Fraser Island's biological marvels as the sand they grow in has almost no natural mineral fertility.
