Lol Gray Figure-8

Starting from the dirt car park opposite the playground, Dryandra, this walk takes you on a circuit in Dryandra Woodland. You can enjoy the views over the old Lol Gray tree fire tower and observe the diverse vegetation the area has. It is also possible to spot kangaroos and wild birds such as ring-necked parrots. The area is also historically important; the old Lol Gray tree fire tower was built in 1930 and used by Forest Department to spot wildfires. A visit between April and November to get the best experience is recommended. There are certain sections that are uneven and steep. Some bushwalking experience is required. 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.
