What to expect
A straightforward gravel track with minimal elevation change. Walking is steady underfoot with good drainage on the gravel surface. The trail likely winds through typical South-West jarrah, marri and heathland with dappled shade in places. Signposting should be clear for a short local route; expect open sections exposed to sun.
Good to know
Carry water even on this short walk—South-West summers are hot and shade is patchy. Winter (June–August) and spring (Aug–Oct) are most pleasant; avoid January–February when temperatures peak and bushfire risk is high. Wear sturdy shoes for gravel; long pants offer protection from scrub.
