Read more about this trail

This trail follows the Little Quinninup Brook before taking you through the varied vegetation of Dordagup National Park and Tone State Forest. As you walk, you'll notice the distinct change in undergrowth from the tall karri forest to the more open jarrah forest. 

This area is known for the variety of orchid species that flower here in winter and spring – keep a lookout for spider, helmet, snail, flying duck, cowslip and bird orchids.

Why not combine this trail with the Karri Lake trail for a longer hike?
