One Tree Bridge and Glenoran Pool
One tree bridge dates from 1904, when the Giblett Brothers who were pioneers in the district, felled a single Karri tree to cross the Donnelly River.
The bridge was in constant use until 1943, surviving several bush fires. Unfortunately, during winter floods in 1966, most of one tree bridge was swept away, leaving us with memories of the ingenuity of the early settlers. Today it is displayed on land near the original site. This area is surrounded by walking tracks and picnic areas.
Historical information displayed nearby tells of the many battles against the elements and the areas link to the Australian poet Adam Lindsay Gordon. He is reputed to have lived for a short period on the property on the eastern bank of the river.
