The Blue Tier
|
|
|
| The Blue Tier is a mountain plateau, northwest of St.Helens that once swarmed with tin miners. To the early pioneers it was known as the "mountain of tin". It is largeley because of their efforts that it is now a walkers paradise. |

|
Old packtrails through regenerating and remnant patches of rainforest cover the plateau. You can follow one of the packtrails to and from long abandoned workings or walk along one of the more recently made tracks. The variety of tracks has something in store for walkers of all ages and all levels of fitness.
The Blue Tier and some of the surrounding areas are managed by the Forestry Department. |
