Our destination, the magnificent white quartzite dome of Frenchman’s Cap rises 1443 metres over the Franklin – Gordon Wild Rivers National Park.
Our journey begins by crossing the Franklin River; over button grass plains and through dense rainforest to beautiful Lake Tahune nestled below the Caps towering 450 metre south east face.
From here and after a couple of zig zags and a scramble or two we are rewarded by spectacular summit views (if the weather is fine).
We then retrace our steps back to the Franklin River and coach journey home.
