What to expect
Straightforward dirt track with minimal elevation change, easy underfoot throughout. The route follows the ridgeline, so exposure is moderate—you'll walk through open eucalypt forest with patches of shade. Well-defined track, easy to follow. Mostly level or gentle gradient.
Good to know
Carry water even for a short walk in WA heat. In summer (Dec–Feb), start early to avoid midday warmth and check bushfire risk before heading out. Wear sturdy shoes for the dirt surface. Spring wildflowers (Aug–Oct) add colour to the bushland.
