This scenic loop walk begins at the Rabbit Hill carpark in Yallingup and can also be accessed from below Caves House. Heading north from Rabbit Hill, the trail follows the cliff line through coastal heath, offering sweeping views south across Yallingup township and north along the rugged coastline to Sugarloaf Rock.

The path climbs over Wardanup Hill, winding through coastal peppermint forest before descending past Ngilgi Cave. From there, it drops into the valley of Yallingup Brook and continues through the township, passing the spectacular Yallingup Reef. The trail then leads onto the beach, where walkers stroll along the sand before ascending the stairs back to Rabbit Hill carpark.

The loop is well-defined and clearly marked, making it easy to follow and enjoy.

Very nice varied trail with amazing views of the Yallingup coastline. I recommend starting at the Ngilgi cave entrance and walking the loop counter clockwise, for the best scenery views while walking
