What to expect
A well-defined unpaved track through jarrah and marri forest with moderate grade. The red earth and leaf litter underfoot will soften steps. Expect shade under the canopy in most sections, though some open areas may be exposed. Track should be signposted at the trailhead; footing can be uneven after rain.
Good to know
Carry water even on this short walk—South-West heat and exertion add up. Wear sturdy walking shoes for unpaved ground. Spring (August–October) brings wildflowers. In summer, check local bushfire risk before heading out. Dogs are often restricted in nearby reserves; confirm access rules locally before visiting.
