About the Walking Trail

Explore the park on an extended loop of Padthaway Conservation Park, including the northern section of the park.

This is not a marked, named trail, so you will need to navigate along the access tracks through the park, however about half of the walk follows the named, marked trails:

• Banksia Loop, marked in red on the map
• The Orchid Track, marked in green on the map
• Currawong Loop, marked in grey on the map

This loop walk takes you through a range of remnant native vegetation that has adapted to the harsh Australian environment and poor soils of this ancient sand dune system upon which this area was built.

Where to start the hike
