The Piper Comanche Wreck is the remains of a light aircraft that crashed in March 1977 after striking trees in the dense rainforest near Mount D’Aguilar. The wreckage lies scattered here in this secluded gully and has been left largely in place as a quiet memorial within the bush. It is now a well-known bushwalking destination, surrounded by dense rainforest and eucalypt forest.
