Drifting down the Pieman River which borders the Tarkine Wilderness in western Tasmania, watching the huge diversity of tree and plant life on its banks as it reflects in the almost undisturbed water surface, you are absorbed into the "Primal Sanctuary" of the place. The Pieman River borders the largest undisturbed tract of rare cool temperate rainforest in Australia and the second largest in the world. Regularly watered by the storms of the Roaring 40's, the forest is home to some of the oldest, tallest and slowest growing trees in Australia.
