Greenbushes Circuit

Situated approximately 2.5 hours south of Perth along the South West Highway, the circuit embarks from the Greenbushes Discovery Centre, leading adventurers to significant landmarks like Schwenke's Dam and remnants of the Vultan Tin Mine. Along the journey, hikers traverse the picturesque Bibbulmun Track, taking in captivating forest vistas and panoramic views of the Blackwood farming valley as they meander through historic town sites nestled within the bush. Integrating a segment of the renowned Bibbulmun Track, this trail guarantees a memorable experience, making it a worthwhile addition to your South West holiday itinerary. There is a serene spot halfway through for a leisurely break or picnic, complete with a picturesque viewpoint and comfortable bench seating. Upon returning to Greenbushes, indulge in delectable treats from the local cake shop or unwind with a refreshing beverage at one of the charming pubs. 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.
