Hike summary

Enjoy magnificent views from the summit of Mount Toolbrunup, the second highest peak in the Stirling Range. A good degree of fitness is required for this four kilometre return hike.

Toolbrunup Peak towers above the other western peaks and offers uninterrupted views in all directions but can only be reached if you are fit and agile and prepared to scramble up some steep rock sections. The trail leaves the Car Park and leads through woodland, mostly following the bank of a creek and becoming progressively steeper. Beyond the woodland it rises steeply over large boulders, loose rocks and steep scree to a saddle near the top of the south-west buttress. From here it’s a short, steep scramble to the top. During spring, those who reach the upper slopes will be rewaRoaded with beautiful mountain bells and southern cross flowers.
