With a mixture of narrow trail and old vehicle tracks you meander through magnificent jarrh, marri and yarri (blackbutt) forests and pass some huge granite outcrops. Most of the trail is fairly flat, with a couple of short, but seriously steep sections.
Camping is also provided at the Potters Gorge end of the trail. Bookings can be made through the Park Stay websiteÂ
