Hike to See Koalas in the French Island

The French Island is known for its pristine flora and fauna and tranquil surroundings. With thousands of koalas—Australia’s most famous and unique native animals—and a rich historical past, it is ideal for an overnight hike. The hike is but an excuse to see koalas up close in their natural habitat. These adorable little creatures have thick woolly fur that insulates them from extremes in weather. Although koalas resemble bears, they do not belong to the family of bears. In fact, they are well adapted to life in the trees. The Pinnacles Track is particularly popular as it has a lot of gum trees atop which koalas may be spotted easily. takeshapeadventures.com.au
