About this place
The walk up to Talyuberlup Peak starts with a gentle uphill stroll through Talyuberlrup mallee and Veronica`s wattle. This slope soon changes into a steep scramble up the mountain until you arrive at the base of a cliff face. Follow the trail up to a large cave that goes through the mountain, around the mountain to a short, near vertical ascent before a final easy walk to the top.
Safety information
Plan when to visit. Consider travelling with a personal location beacon (PLB). In the event you need to be rescued it could save your life!
The peaks of the Stirling Range are subject to rapid, unpredictable changes in the weather. Hikers should be prepared for sudden cool changes that cause the temperature to drop and rain or hail to set in.
All visitors are strongly advised not to enter the bush or use footpaths on days of extreme fire danger. If you are planning to hike off marked trails, abseil or rock climb, please register your details at the shelter in the picnic area across the road from Bluff Knoll Road entry station. If you plan to hike on an established walk, no registration is required.
Do not enter the cave as the rocks overhanging the cave are unstable and may fall.
