Lovely loop to see the old chimney, love how they carved steps and walkways out of the fallen trees! Not sure if we were allowed to take the dog tho... saw a few others walking their four legged friends so ours joined the party and had no complaints!

This is a great place to visit if you have animal lovers in the family. We spent over 2 hours there. My wife and daughter found the baby deer, goat and calf especially affectionate and friendly. The Clydesdale and roos were my favorites. Well worth a visit and good value for money for families.

Absolutely beautiful drive. Well worth the deviation off the main highway. Driving through the amazing tall Karri Forest is breathtaking- as are the views if you make it the viewpoint at the top

There are 4 trails to choose from the Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse. We picked the Whale Lookout Trail in the hope of seeing some whales. Alas, none were to be seen but nevertheless, we enjoyed a lovely walk through the bush and on the sturdy boardwalk. At the first shelter at the start of the boardwalk, the view is obstructed but there is an information board on whales. Down the boardwalk, you will reach the lookout point with lovely unobstructed views of the ocean. A pity we did not see any whales here but at out next stop at the Whale Lookout Point where Castle Rock is, we finally did.

Ambergate Reserve is 75 hectares of natural bushland on Queen Elizabeth Avenue about 9km south of the Busselton townsite. Rescued in 1987 before it could be handed over for cattle grazing, it now contains an outstanding display of wildflowers from mid-winter to early summer. Orchids are a speciality. The reserve has an easy and safe 4km walk trail to show you all of the different vegetation types and associated wildflowers. I never cease to be amazed at the natural diversity on display at Ambergate. If you know where and when to look, it contains bandicoots - a small species of kangaroo - and ringtail possums. A rare and endangered snail was found there just 3 years ago and, although highly protected, there is a rare species of Verticordia or featherflower found within the reserve. If you want to get away from crowds and experience nature, this is the place to go.
