Walpole-Nornalup National Park

The national park covers 159 square kilometers of land, featuring extensive karri forests, tingle trees, wetlands, and coastal landscapes along the Southern Ocean.

The park gained protected status in 1910 through Minister James Mitchell's designation as an A-class reserve, following the arrival of European settlers in the region.

The Murrum people of the Minang indigenous group maintained deep connections to this land for 30,000 years, naming the area Nor-Nor-Nup.

The Tree Top Walk structure rises 40 meters above ground, providing visitors with wheelchair-accessible elevated pathways through the ancient forest canopy.

Red tingle trees in the park represent one of the last remaining populations of this species, with some specimens reaching 75 meters in height.
