The trail was once a part of the old railway network that was built during the timber boom. The trail begins or ends (depending where you start) at Cowaramup and finishes at Margaret River. Approximately 13.5km of trail has been developed as a multi-use trail for walking, cycling and horse riding. The trail is wide enough for two horses to walk comfortably side by side. The trail follows the alignment of the Discontinued Busselton-Flinders Bay Railway line
Along the 5 kilometres north of Margaret River there are numerous bridges crossing a major river and creeks and streams of varying sizes. The trail is easy to navigate with picnic areas along the way. The spectacular birdlife includes yellow robins, parrots and blue wrens and the wildflowers are stunning in Spring (September to December). As it was a railway, the gradient is relatively flat, and the terrain is generally gentle.

Located within the Shire of Mundaring this was a great bushwalk around the very popular Lake Leschenaultia.
A very easy walk, perfect for young kids to check out native Australian plants before a swim in the lake.
Also saw a pair of very cute fairy wrens.

Mount Bruce is the second-tallest peak in Western Australia at 1235m and lies about 36km west of the park office. The walking tracks on the mountain provide a great opportunity to view the Marandoo Mine Site located to the south. The easiest walk is the Marandoo View which is a 500m walk and takes about 30 minutes round trip. For a slightly harder walk, you can take the Honey Hakea Track which is a 4.6km round trip that is about a 3 hour journey.
