Hike overview
No Tree Hill offers a scenic 6-kilometre (return) Grade 2 hike within Fitzgerald River National Park, Western Australia. This moderately easy trail winds through heathland, culminating at a 262-metre summit. The trek takes approximately 2.25 hours to complete.
The reward for your effort is a breathtaking view encompassing Culham Inlet and the Eyre Range. Keep your eyes peeled for black-gloved wallabies amongst the shrubs, and be sure to take in the ever-changing display of wildflowers throughout the year.
The trail is typically accessible by two-wheel drive vehicles, although it originates from a four-wheel drive track. Remember that the exposed nature of the hike makes it less suitable for hot weather conditions. Be sure to dress appropriately and bring plenty of water. As you ascend, listen for the lively calls of honeyeaters flitting amongst the heathland shrubs. Near the summit, you'll also encounter a distinctive grove of weeping gums.
Track grade
Grade 2 (Easy) -Â A Gentle Introduction to Inclines: Grade 2 on the AWTGS represents easy walking tracks that offer a slightly more challenging experience compared to Grade 1. Similar to Grade 1, no prior bushwalking experience is required. The track surface is typically hardened or compacted and may have gentle hill sections or occasional steps. The total distance of a Grade 2 walk is typically no greater than 10 kilometers. These walks are still suitable for families with a bit more experience or those seeking a gentle introduction to some inclines.
