Golden Valley Wattle Circuit
1.3 km
Circuit
20 min to 40 min
Starting from the car park off Old Padbury Road, Balingup, Golden Valley Wattle Circuit offers Golden Valley Tree Park's most vibrant display during the midwinter and early spring seasons when the landscape is adorned with abundant yellow blossoms. Marked by golden arrows, this short loop--although unformed--is easily navigable, making for a leisurely stroll. Wanderers exploring the Wattle Circuit during winter and spring are treated to a striking contrast between the vibrant yellows of wattle blooms and the bare branches of deciduous trees in the park's World Collection section. This park's allure lies in the subtle and distinct contrasts between its Australian and World Collection sections. Portions of the Wattle Circuit coincide with the Tall Gums Short Walk, providing a glimpse of both collections for those with limited time. Featuring native pines and intriguing patches of oil mallees (a tree typically found in the Wheat Belt), this track offers a diverse botanical experience. While most complete it within 30 minutes, the allure of blooming flowers may extend the journey for those captivated by nature's beauty. Let us begin by acknowledging the Wadandi, Pibulmun and Ganeang people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
