Trails

Despite how hard you try, it’s always hard work. The final push to the top of Mt Gunjin. Unlike the trails of old this one twists and turns a lot to back off the gradient to try and make it as pleasant as possible.

Mount Baldy Lookout Trail is one of several excellent walks, best undertaken near sunrise or late afternoon. It’s a 3.6 kilometre return walk starting near the front gate at Home Valley Station’s tourist resort accommodation. The summit offers fantastic panoramic views of Cockburn Ranges.

The 5.5km, Mount Pingerup Walk Trail, is steep in places and offers spectacular views of Broke Inlet, the Southern Ocean and the surrounding D’Entrecasteaux National Park from the summit. Wildflowers, including orchids, are prolific during spring (August to November). A good level of fitness is required.

Mt Arid walk trail is located in Cape Arid National Park and can only be accessed via Yokinup Bay. 4WD accessible ONLY. Tides and weather conditions must be consulted before driving on the beach. Spectacular views to the south and west overlooking the Recherché Archipelago. Two kilometre return hike to the summit of Mt Arid.

A short and easy walk in the Beeliar Regional Park to a vantage point giving 360 degree views to Cockburn Sound, and inland surrounding areas.

The 9km return Mount Bruce Summit Trail is located in the Karijini National Park and allows great opportunities to view the surrounding Hamersley Range and Marandoo mining operations. This Grade 5 moderately steep trail follows a clearly marked path along the ridge of the mountain with a couple of challenging rocky climbs to negotiate.

Situated 16 km south of Northcliffe just off the Windy Harbour Road.  Mount Chudalup towers over the surrounding karri forest. The climb to the top of this 185 metre granite dome is steep in places but well worth the effort.

The Meelup Reserve Trail is a beautiful serene 7 km coastal walk that traverses along the north-facing Geographe Bay. This lovely bush track is a moderately easy walk consisting mainly of a limestone and granite path decorated with stunning white sandy turquoise bays and pristine bushland.

The Swan Canning Riverpark holds significant cultural and natural values for Perth, serving as an important feature of the city’s landscape. The Melville Water Riverpark Trail is a sixteen kilometre urban trail along the Swan River (Derbal Yarrigan), from Fremantle Traffic Bridge to Canning Bridge through some of Perth’s most unique southern foreshore reserves and parks.

Often overlooked this is a great little connector that joins on to the bottom part of Mercury Street.

Oh yeah. What a fun blast down for most levels of riders. Lots of jumps and a log ride with a launch exit keeps riders on there toes.

The 1.8 km Merredin Peak Trail provides an uninterrupted view across the town of Merredin and the surrounding rural area. As the highest peak in the area it offers spectacular panoramic views as far as the eye can see.

A fun, tight downhill trail that leads from the top of Highway to Dell down towards Scorpion trail.

The Mill Brook Trail is a big ride with lots of climbing. This black trail is 8km long and climbs a total of 360m. When you get to the end of the trail you will either need to get a lift back to your car or ride another 3 kilometres to where you started.

The Mini Palms Trail is a challenging 4.4km return trail from the Bloodwoods carpark which follows the Escarpment Trail for 1km before turning off to follow a dry, stony creek bed. The trail continues with steep slopes, narrow edges and large boulders to climb over, under or squeeze between before reaching two viewing platforms surrounded by Livistona palms, looking into an amphitheatre filled with tiny palms.

The Marrinup Falls Walk Trail is a quite enjoyable 1.3km bush walk, just up from the old Marrinup Townsite. Lovely views, wildflowers and waterfalls at the right time of year.

The Meanarra Hill Lookout walk is a 300m return trail with beautiful panoramic views over the town of Kalbarri, the mouth of the Murchison River and inland across the park.  At 207m above sea level Meanarra Hill is the perfect vantage point for 360° views of Kalbarri and the Murchison River flowing into the Indian Ocean – this is an ideal spot for photos, especially at sunset!

This is an outstanding 15.5 kilometre (31 kilometre return) walk along part of the spectacular Fitzgerald River National Park coastline from Point Ann to Point Charles and on to the Fitzgerald River mouth. Along with the coastal views are views to the inland peaks and lakes of the central wilderness area. It is marked with posts bearing the Royal Hakea symbol.
