What to expect
A well-defined gravel track with minimal gradient, walking through typical Pemberton-area forest of jarrah and marri. The surface is even and easy underfoot. Sections are shaded by forest canopy, with some open areas. The track is likely signposted at the trailhead. No steep climbs or rough terrain.
Good to know
