Opened in 2001
The Tahune Airwalk opened on 1 July 2001 in the forest about 29 kilometres from Geeveston. The steel walkway was built to carry visitors through the canopy of a tall wet forest of eucalypts, myrtle beech, sassafras and leatherwood.
The 2019 bushfire
In January 2019 fires lit by dry lightning in the south-west merged and moved towards Tahune and Geeveston. The site was evacuated on 21 January, with more than 300 guests, and firefighters stayed at the Visitor Centre as the fire burned through the forest around the Airwalk.
Rebuilding the walks
The walkway itself was not damaged. About 4.5 kilometres of track were repaired or rebuilt, the Airwalk was given a new entrance and exit and repainted, and more than 8,000 native plants went in. Tahune reopened on 28 February 2020.
