Wooditjup National Park — Attraction in Margaret River

This is a national park just north and east of the Albany town centre. There is a fair sized carpark at the trailhead for a handful of walking and cycling tracks through mature forests filled with Karri, Marri and Jarrah Trees.

We used the carpark along Craters Road past Rotary Park where there are several trailheads for both walkers and bikers. Trail information is posted at the carpark as well. The RAC Campground is located nearby as well and includes access to the Wooditjup Trails.

We followed the Chimney trail (pink colour) which was an easy and lovely hour’s walk that went uphill for a while, and then meandered down a valley sheltered by a canopy of tall trees. At the bottom of the valley, just follow the sign to the car park and don’t change direction when you see a sign pointing at the opposite direction 30 metres down. That sign is for people doing the trail starting from the...
