The varied vegetation includes wet [[eucalypt]] forests, mixed forests dominated by [[Eucalyptus obliqua|stringybark]] (''Eucalyptus obliqua''), [[rainforest]]s, [[Alpine vegetation of Tasmania|sub-alpine and alpine forests]]. The rainforest communities are dominated by [[Nothofagus cunninghamii|myrtle]] (''Nothofagus cunninghamii''), [[Atherosperma moschatum|sassafras]] (''Atherosperma moschatum''), [[Eucryphia lucida|leatherwood]] (''Eucryphia lucida'') and [[Anopterus glandulosus|native laurel]] (''Anopterus glandulosus''). The sub-alpine forests are dominated by three eucalypt types: [[Eucalyptus coccifera|snow gum]] (''Eucalyptus coccifera''), [[Eucalyptus vernicosa|varnished gum]] (''E. vernicosa''), Australia's smallest eucalypt, and yellow gum (''E. subcrenulata''). Much of the understorey is made of heath plants, including the [[Telopea truncata|Tasmanian waratah]] (''Telopea truncata'').<ref name="highlights"/>
