The Sheoak walk in Kondil Park Recreation Area is located near the little town of Nannup. Rolling farmlands and patches of native forests surrounds Nannup, making it a very picturesque location for visitors and locals alike. An area of state forest, a few minutes drive out of Nannup, features Kondil Park Recreational Area.
The Sheoak walk is a short winding leafy trail going through previously logged bushland featuring stands of jarrah, grass trees and casuarina and a huge range of wildflowers. The trail is gently undulating, suitable for all grades of walkers.
During spring, expect to see numerous ground orchids and kangaroo paws. Kangaroos are often sighted and remain relatively close by if you don’t make too much noise. Birds are prolific, especially in spring, so bring the binoculars.
