Starting from the Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse car park at the end of Cape Naturaliste Road, Cape Naturaliste, this walk takes you to Sugarloaf Rock and back via the Cape to Cape Track. The epic Cape to Cape Track stretches 124km from end to end, but it also offers plenty of shorter walks for those on a time limit. The 'Access for More' section runs between the Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse and Sugarloaf Rock, providing an exceptional experience for walkers of all abilities. This stretch of the iconic Cape to Cape takes in the magnificent coastline, rock formations and vegetation, offering some of the most stunning coastal scenery in the region, with beautiful wildflowers in spring and wonderful views year-round. The trail is a mix of sealed pathways and boardwalk with a mostly flat or gentle downhill gradient, making it pram-friendly and wheelchair accessible. Conveniently placed benches allow walkers to rest and enjoy the view and trailside signage provides detailed information on the landscape and wildlife of this coastal environment. Additionally, Sugarloaf Rock is a mating site for red-tailed tropicbirds as it creates a safe zone from coastal predators. They mate for life and come back to the area annually. You can also explore the rocky sections and geological formations along the coastline and look for whales migrating between September and November.

Walk
1 h to 2 h

Starting from the Moses Rock Carpark off Moses Rock Road, Wilyabrup, this walk takes you to Quinninup Falls and back via the Quinninup Falls Trail. Quinninup Falls is a beautiful seasonal waterfall not far from the coast near Moses Rock. The journey to the falls is every bit as beautiful as the destination. The trail follows the Cape to Cape Track through granite outcrops and coastal heath, taking in views of the spectacular granite cliffs and coastline. In wildflower season, there's a visual feast of flowers in every colour. At the start of the walk, you can see the waves crashing against the shore and surfers enjoying the ocean. The trail takes you over some rocky terrain, and then it is mainly walking up and down sand dunes. Near the beach, the trail turns and leads inland to the base of the falls. After crossing a bridge with a stream running underneath it, the trail leads out into a red dirt plain before the land dips and weaves and Quinninup Falls appears. Once you arrive at Quininup Falls, the view is breathtaking and well worth the effort. The contrast of the sand dunes right next to the waterfall surprise many walkers. One minute you can hear the wind and the waves crashing against the shore, and then you step down into a small, quiet, green sanctuary where the sound of the rushing waterfall takes centre stage. The water is crystal clear, both in the rock pool and downstream. The best time to view the falls is between late winter and late spring, after plenty of recent rain. You may be disappointed in the other months of the year as the waterfall can dry out. To get to the falls, park your car at the Moses Rock Carpark. Facilities here include toilets, a viewing platform and a sturdy wooden staircase leading down to the beach. The trail varies from flat and easy to rocky and uneven. The journey is a bit challenging, yet the rewarding experience is worth it. There are a few big sand dunes that are easy to descend but quite exhausting to climb up due to the loose sand. Keep a lookout for the Cape to Cape Track signs - if you can see them, you are going the right way. 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.

Around the lake, there are boardwalks and lookouts which allow you to admire the picturesque landscape better. You can also view the Perth city skyline from one of the northern lookouts.

Lions Lookout Loop
3.8 km
Circuit

Walk
1 h to 2 h

Starting from the Lions Lookout Carpark off Welshpool Road East, Lesmurdie, this walk takes you on a circuit via the Lions Lookout Walk Trail. This loop is perfect for a quick escape into the bush, providing expansive views over the Perth Coastal Plain and an abundance of wildflowers in spring. The first section is a gentle downhill to the junction where the loop begins, and soon the noise from the road disappears as you immerse yourself in the surrounding bushland. From the junction, the trail climbs steeply to a small plateau with Wandoo trees, then continues through a forest of Jarrah, Casuarina and Banksia trees. After a steep descent out of the forest, the trail is more open country with a slight uphill journey to the junction that forms the loop part of the walk. From there, it's an easy stroll back to the car park, and you will have completed a hike through some lovely bushland with city views. The markers for this trail are light blue, and the first one can be found on the gravel track leading south from the car park. This is a moderately difficult walk, with some steep loose descents and taxing climbs. The steep parts of the track can be slippery, especially when descending, so be cautious.

Walk

Starting from the Kokerbin Rock Picnic Area off Kokerbin Hill Road, Kwolyin, this walk takes you past Wave Rock, Devil's Marbles and the Historic Well, to the summit of Kokerbin Rock and back. Explore amazing rock formations, discover some of the local history or simply enjoy woodlands, wildlife and sweeping views at Kokerbin Rock. The picnic area at the base of the rock has running water, toilets and barbecue facilities, and is a good place to start exploring. A walking trail winds its way to the summit of the granite outcrop, passing beautiful wave formations, caves, lookouts and historical sites along the way. The trail meanders to the northwestern end of Kokerbin Rock, then begins the climb up the surface of the rock itself. Once you reach the summit, you will be rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The return journey is via the same route and feels much quicker going back down. Although the trail is not technically hard, it can be steep in places. The rocks can be slippery in winter, and it is often windy at the summit. It gets hot on the rocks in summer, so take plenty of water, a hat and sunscreen. Stay on the designated paths and wear sturdy footwear when exploring the outcrops.
