Starting from Sandford Rocks Nature Reserve car park, Westonia, this walk takes you on a circuit, offering views of geological formations and wildflowers. After a gentle climb over the granite surface, you can reach the intriguing natural amphitheatre. The highlights of the walk, however, do not finish there as you reach a significant cairn and a peak point, where you can enjoy the open vistas, even the history of mining across Westonia. The period between August and November is the most suitable for birdwatching and wildflowers, which include rare species such as Silver Mallee (Eucalyptus crucis subspecies crucis) and Purple Peacock Beetles. There are certain places that can be uneven with gentle hilly sections along the path. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
