Known for its unparalleled natural scenery, the trail features everything from sweeping coastal cliffs to majestic Karri forests, making it a premier hiking trail in Western Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a manageable yet scenic hike, consider tackling the following sections that are the closest to RAC Margaret River Nature Park. The Contos Cliff to Bob\u2019s Hollow hike is about 5 km return and offers panoramic views of the coast from the elevated vantage point on the trail above Contos Beach. Closer to town, the Margaret River Mouth to Kilcarnup Beach trail is about 6 km return and offers hikers the chance to explore Cape Mentelle (not to be confused with the winery of the same name) and the 4WD-only beach that awaits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hiking the Cape to Cape is enjoyable all year round, but the best times of the year are autumn and spring. During spring, keep an eye out for native wildflowers and breaching whales in the distance. Regardless of the season, it&#8217;s important to carry sun protection and plenty of water. Be prepared for some uneven and steep terrain, requiring a moderate level of fitness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo: Tourism Western Australia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":956,"template":"","categories":[102],"activity-type":[103,104],"time-of-year":[108,106,109,107],"class_list":["post-955","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 -
