Pull over here to safely park off the road and take a short stroll through the section of forest on the opposite side of the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Explore through the network of trails winding through the karri trees, lush ferns and dappled sunlight \u2013 perfect for taking some picturesque snaps. The popular Pies and Ale restaurant is just down the road from the viewpoint, serving a range of gourmet pies accompanied by tasty sides like mushy green peas and crispy hash browns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a detour off Caves Road along Boranup Drive for a scenic drive through the forest. This peaceful gravel road is suitable for 2WD vehicles as it winds through the dense karri forest. While in the area, combine your trip with a visit to one of the nearby caves, such as Lake Cave or Giants Cave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo: Tourism Western Australia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":951,"template":"","categories":[102],"activity-type":[103,104],"time-of-year":[108,106,109,107],"class_list":["post-950","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-attractions","activity-type-kid-friendly","activity-type-nature-experiences","time-of-year-autumn","time-of-year-spring","time-of-year-summer","time-of-year-winter"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
