Sepulcralis means "of the tomb" and the weeping gum found along this trail, Eucalyptus sepulcralis, was so named as it was thought to be ideal for cemeteries. From the lookout, there are views to the three sharp peaks of the Whoogarup range and beyond to the three central peaks of the Barrens.
To the east is the rugged East Mt Barren and the Eyre Range. A variety of plants can be found along this walk including bearded heaths, rushes and several species of banksias.
