Starting from the dirt car park in Cape Arid National Park, this walk takes you on a stroll, visiting the ruins of the historic Hill Springs. It is a historically informative walk and also provides panoramic views. Hill Springs belonged to John Baesjou and his family until 1910. The trail also visits the grave of William Ponton, John's uncle. Additionally, it offers visitors open views over the Recherche Archipelago and behind Mt Arid. There are no marks along the path, but the vegetation is cleared for a better walking experience. 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.
