Brush box trees are one of the standout species in Fraser Island’s (K’gari) rainforest around Central Station, with their distinctive bark peeling away in colourful patches. They’re part of the same remarkable story as the rest of the island’s rainforest — genuine forest giants thriving in what should be nutrient-poor sand, sheltering birds and epiphytes in their canopy.
Central Station is about 110 km south of Orchid Blue — roughly a 2-hour 4WD drive. Our Complete Guide to Central Station has the details.
