About this track

Tone Road is a moderate 4.5 km unsealed track near Northcliffe in the South-West. The walk takes about an hour and winds through native forest typical of the region—jarrah, marri and karri—with the unpaved surface offering an authentic bushwalking experience. Well-suited to walkers seeking a half-day outing without steep climbing.

Highlights

  • Unsealed forest track through South-West woodland
  • Moderate pace, achievable in an hour
  • Native jarrah and karri forest setting
  • Short enough for a morning or afternoon walk

What to expect

An unpaved track through open forest with gentle to moderate terrain. Footing is generally stable on the unsealed surface, though it can be uneven after rain. Expect dappled shade beneath the canopy and occasional exposure to sun. The track should be clearly defined and easy to follow.

Good to know

Wear sturdy walking boots for grip on loose ground. Carry water, especially in warmer months—South-West summers are hot and dry. Spring (August–October) offers wildflower colour. Check for bushfire risk during summer and avoid walking on high fire-danger days. The track may be muddy after rain.
