When visiting the Nay Aug Gorge Tree House, bring a camera and don't stand too close to the edge!

Nay Aug Gorge Tree House

Over the years, many young visitors have drowned while "looking" into the gorge at Nay Aug Park. A young mayor who no doubt survived his youthful "looking" erected a large tree house over the area including wheelchair access to those who choose to view safely. Nay Aug also had a pool, water slides, picnic areas and a museum worth visiting.
