Bluff Knoll — Attraction in Stirling Range National Park

We came here on 2 January 2023, many parking slots when we arrived around 9.30am. There are toilets at the lookout / the start of the trail.

It was a challenging walk, 3.1km one way, a lot of stairs right from beginning. 720 metres of elevation in total!

We (stupidly) did the walk after recently completed a 12.5km Bald Head trail, so our legs were still sore when going up Bluff Knoll, took us 2 hours 20 minutes with a slow pace. And 1 hour 50 minutes coming down with multiple stops for photos.

I would definately recommend anyone to have a go at getting to the top - slow and steady still gets...

A truly amazing experience. My first climb of this knoll and was to attempt to see snow in W.A. To my amazement one hour into the hike snow starts falling at 750m altitude this continued on and off increasing in intensity all the way to the summit! Be prepared for sudden changes in weather wind can reach in excess of 80 kmph at the summit with -12 degrees c...
