Starting just behind the Walpole Nornalup Visitor Centre, this easy trail is a great way to stretch your legs. 

A boardwalk takes you across Butler Creek before you set off into the forest. The wildflowers are spectacular in spring but it's a great way to experience the karri forest all year round. 

Along the trail, you will read about the plants of the forest from the point of view of Bert and Mary, two fictional settlers children from the 1930's.

Best of all - you can take your dog with you on this trail!
