The King Jarrah trail traces the former transportation routes of the once vibrant timber industry. The much-prized hardwoods of jarrah, marri, and blackbutt saw a proliferation of timber towns in the late nineteenth century and were an important source of employment for the early pioneers.
This 18-kilometre guided hike can be quite challenging with some steep rocky sections, but the last 11 kilometres is relatively flat as it follows the Murray River on an old 4 x 4 track. You can expect to see plenty of wildlife and birdlife and hear the water flowing along the river on this full-day hiking experience in Lane Poole Reserve, Dwellingup.
