A stunning walk in one of Western Australia's best national parks, this is a must do experience in the Mid-West.
Arguably Western Australia's most well known and popular bushwalk, the Bluff Knoll trail takes walkers up the highest peak of the Stirling Range.

Linking Dunsborough to Eagle Bay, the Meelup Trail leads walkers along the coast to beautiful secluded beaches and impressive granite rock formations.

Kitty's Gorge is a stunning return walk in the Jarrah Woodlands of the Darling Scarp, leading walkers from the town of Jarrahdale to the beautiful Serpentine Falls via the rocky Gooralong Brook and Serpentine River.
