What to expect
Flat to gently rolling unpaved track with compacted gravel or earth underfoot. Shaded in sections by jarrah and marri forest typical of the region; some open stretches expose you to sun and weather. Signposting and track condition depend on maintenance, so watch footing after rain. No steep climbs or technical features.
Good to know
Carry water, especially in warmer months. Wear sturdy shoes or light hiking boots for unpaved terrain. Suitable for bikes with decent tyres (not road bikes). Check bushfire risk in summer before heading out. Best visited in spring (Aug–Oct) when wildflowers are out, or cooler months. Dogs may be restricted depending on land management.
