"Home of the Valley of the Giants Treetop Walk" Walpole-Nornalup National Park by aussiedoug

Spectacular South West Forest

We visited here on our way back from Albany while we were driving across to Augusta.
See my must see activity that explains the title of this page.
Walpole-Nornalup National Park is found in a high rainfall area of south western Western Australia. We didn't see much of the coastal part of it as we did it as part of our drive.
I'm really glad we did stop and do the Valley of the Giants Treetop Walk. One of the things I really enjoyed about driving around W.A. was seeing all the different trees to what I grew up with on the mid north coast of New South Wales.

Pros and Cons

    I hope you walked among the trees they call the Ancient Kingdom while you were there. Are we going to see more of WA from you some day? leyle

    Our SW is truly beautiful with so much to enjoy. It sounds as though you really appreciated it, Doug.

    A fantastic place! (Ok, the bridge is not like the Capilano, but they both move! :-)) (I've been searching for pages on the Valley of the Giants - I was there in July and I was curious about others' pictures and comments.)

    You forgot to mention how much the walk moves! Agree with you about walking the forest floor. Cheers, Ian.

    Fabulous forests for sure in SW WA & I felt a strong spiritual feel about them. What about you?

    A very worthwhile activity indeed when in SW Australia.
