The Forest Path, as described, is perfect for mobility impaired or those with young children and prams. Good facilities at the trailhead and lots of interpretation. However, there are other trails in this park and for those after a longer stroll the Wildflower Walk is a good option with a viewing platform over the valley with Bunbury visible on the horizon (on a clear day!). The Ferguson Valley is a really pretty area - would be worth staying a night to explore.
Trails are free and bring so many benefits to our community by providing opportunities to have fun, get fit, socialise, explore and challenge yourself. But they also have to be managed and maintained which only is made possible through terrific sponsors, donations and/or volunteering.
