Following the path of an unused rail track that closed in 1957, the heritage trail deviates inland to meander through the beautiful surrounding forest in parts.

The picturesque coastal town of Denmark is located five hours drive south of Perth. The region offers a number of drive trails and walking tracks for visitors to explore end enjoy the spectacular countryside.
