Join us for a moderately strenuous hike, with Jarrah forest and river scenery as a stunning backdrop. The highlight of this walk is the impressive "King Jarrahâ€, a 250 year old Jarrah tree!
The King Jarrah trail traces the former transportation routes of the once vibrant timber industry. The much prized hard woods 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.
