Lying astride the Victorian border near Kybybolite is Mullinger Swamp, with huge, ancient gums, plentiful birdlife and waters to canoe or paddle (subject to seasonal conditions). Adjacent to the swamp is the Limestone Coast’s largest living red gum, standing about 50 metres high with a circumference of 11.6 metres. The tree is believed to be between 800 and 1,000 years old and much of the base is hollow – in past times used as a change room for swimmers!
