The Fig Tree Arch was formed when seeds of the fig were dropped by foraging birds in the fork of a host tree. Germination took place and the fig’s aerial roots slowly reached the ground and strangled the host tree, leaving only the fig tree to survive. The distinctive arch is large enough for a 4WD. The road to get here requires a high-clearance 4WD.
