Learn moreAbout Wooleen Walk Trail No.1
The No.1 Wooleen Walk trail takes walkers on a loop from the homestead. It meanders through typical mulga scrub land and then climbs a gentle fault line for views back towards the homestead and then over the seasonal Wooleen Lake. There are different ecosystems along the way and spring wildflowers are spectacular.
The trail is marked with white pegs every 20m.
A walk trail brochure can be purchased from the Wooleen homestead for walking notes on the flora, fauna and history of the area. Otherwise laminated maps can be borrowed from the starting point.
