What to expect
Unpaved track through woodland with variable footing — expect roots, stones and possibly some soft earth. Moderate terrain means gentle rises and falls rather than steep climbing. Shade from jarrah, marri or mixed forest will provide relief, though exposure varies. Track should be signposted; check conditions before heading out, as wet weather can make unpaved surfaces slippery.
Good to know
Wear sturdy walking boots with good grip. Carry at least one litre of water. Spring (Aug–Oct) brings wildflowers and mild weather; summer heat and bushfire risk make it less appealing. Check local fire danger ratings before visiting. The track is near Mundaring, so plan parking at the trailhead.
