Quick overview: Discover the 7km long, Grade 3 Mount Farrell trail, a moderate hike nestled along the rugged West Coast range in Australia. Cherish the 360-degree views of Tullah, Lake Rosebery, and Lake Herbert, with the potential to catch sight of snow-capped mountains or bask in warm, orange-tinged sunrises and sunsets. Remember to pack cold-weather clothes due to alpine exposure. Optionally extend your adventure with a detour to Lake Herbert.
