Starting from Toohey Picnic Area car park off Toohey Road, Salisbury, this circuit walk takes you through Toohey Forest, optionally visiting the Sandstone Lookout along the way. The Toohey Forest & Nathan Circuit is a tranquil walk through a eucalypt woodland. The creek flows after rainfall, creating a refreshing atmosphere. The walk provides a variety of options for customisation and is challenging enough to get the heart rate up without being too technical or long. The Toohey Forest is home to over 400 native animals, including the short-beaked echidna, red-browed finch, rainbow lorikeet, koalas and more. Wildflowers are abundant, especially in spring, and the canopy provides ample shade. Dogs are allowed on lead. Although the tracks are mostly well-maintained, there is not much signage, so it is advisable to pay more attention to the app/map. The forest can get quite busy during peak times. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
