One Tree Hill is a scenic lookout and picnic area set among tall eucalypt forest with views across the surrounding hills. During World War II, the hill was used as a communications and observation site, reflecting its elevated position and strategic views across the ranges. Today, the site offers with picnic tables, sheltered seating, toilets, a small car park, and access to nearby walking tracks. It's a peaceful spot to rest after the steep climb through ferns, gums, and blackwoods.
