City of Burnie
The City of Burnie is a local government area of Tasmania. It covers the city of Burnie and surrounding areas, although it does not include the town of Somerset - usually classed as part of the Burnie metropolitan area. The city's motto is "non nobis solum" (not for ourselves alone); for many years this was on the council seal but in 1992 a new, more colourful logo was created which did not include the motto. It did also not include the emu (which had been Burnie's unofficial animal emblem).
Guide Falls
Guide Falls are situated closely to the back of Burnie, Tasmania. Head out of Burnie on the same road to cradle mountain then turn right just outside the Ridgley boundary and continue down into the gully and turn left when you get to the posted gate sign. Once entered the guide river is to the right and if you continue to drive up the gravel road to the top you will reach the falls. There at the top is a very safe and great view from the fenced lookout.
