This forest is incredible you just are in awe looking up at these gigantic trees. Give yourself time to walk around and get to the waterfall and walkthrough tree.

This place is absolutely beautiful, it’s such a shame people can’t respect property and they have stopped camping here as it’s a perfect place to relax and play around the water You can still access it for day use so make the most of it, SUP, kayak or just swim. Bring your own food and drinks though - there is a little shop nearby but otherwise bring your own stuff (just make sure you take your rubbish with you!!!!) It’s the perfect day out with the family
3. Mundaring Community Sculpture Park

This park is great for kids of all ages. There is a huge climbing rope with a big slide to get you down for the bigger kids. There are swings, in ground merry-go-round, two flying foxes, a nature climb area with a tree truck that you can walk through and a play area with 3 other slides with many ways up to get to them. There are also objects up the top for the kids to climb on, one is a hand and another a digger. There is plenty of shade for picnics and a few tables scattered around. The playground has shade at different times of the day. Definitely worth a visit here for the kids to burn off some energy. Plenty of parking and its across the road from the Mundaring Pub.
4. Giant Tingle Tree

The Giant Tingle Tree is a great spot to stop for a fabulous bush walk through the Tingle trees. The trail is suitable for all ages and there are plenty of rest stops along the way. It is about 1.5km and lots to see and read about along the way. Toilets and picnic tables are available at the carpark before you start the walk. A lovely place to stop. The Tingle trees are spectacular. So tall and virtually growing on nothing left of their bases. Such a unique tree and only found in this area of WA. Well worth the drive.

Recently returned from Esperance - Helms arboretum certainly the place to see great spider orchids. These photos are very good. Unfortunately, ours are not good, as the wind was extreme. Free entry too
6. Monkey Rock

Reviewed By KGF1 - Perth, Australia
Great short walk up to Monkey Rock. Small car park area on Lights Beach Road (look for the small brown sign). Short walk up to the rock, and then a bit of a scramble to get to the very top of the rock for the exceptional views. Walk can be done in regular trainers. I’d definitely recommend this, and also going early to beat the crowds. We arrived before 8 and were the only people at the summit.... 3 more people arrived whilst we sat taking in the view. On the way down quite a few groups of people were on their way up.
7. Harewood Forest

This is a short, easily walked path through the magnificent karri forest of Denmark. The path has a short history of Denmark and the forest signposted along the way, along with information on the flora of the area. The tranquillity of the bush makes for a awe-filled walk. Butterflies were plentiful, dappled sunlight created a leadlight of greenery, and if you happened to tear your gaze away from the beauty of the forest floor you would be treated to the sight of the towering karri tree canopy far above your head. The air was so cool and fresh it was more like drinking than breathing. A must-see for visitors to Denmark.
