Leichhardt Tree, Taroom, Historical tree in Taroom, Australia
The Leichhardt Tree stands 14 meters tall in Yaldwyn Street, featuring a natural growth pattern characteristic of mature coolibah trees in Queensland.
German explorer Ludwig Leichhardt marked this coolibah tree during his 4,800-kilometer expedition from Darling Downs to Port Essington in 1844.
The tree represents a connection between European exploration and Indigenous heritage, marking a period of transformation in southeastern Queensland's settlement patterns.
Visitors can locate this heritage-listed tree in the center of Taroom, where informational signs detail its role in Australian exploration history.
This 300-year-old coolibah tree survived the 1893 floods and maintains visible survey marks from the early twentieth century.
