More a town walk than a bush walk. It’s basically a walk around the edge of Boyup Brook town site. Still, there was a bush section and plenty of nice scenery.
An easy walk on hard packed trail. Signage is getting old and seemed to be absent at the places where you needed to decide which track to follow because of roads or other intersecting tracks.
The public toilets at the Bridge St starting point are pretty run down.
