Not your average lookout 👀⛰️
The Granite Skywalk is a suspended platform perched high on Castle Rock within the Porongurup National Park – and the views from up here? Unreal.
The 2km hike up winds through beautiful jarrah, marri and karri forest, and takes you past the massive Balancing Rock!
To reach the top, there’s a bit of a scramble and a 6m ladder climb – but the reward is 360° magic.
Perfect for adventure seekers and view chasers 🌿

🧘♀️❄️ Retreat to Albany, Winter Wellness For Two 💞🌿
When your life feels loud and is moving too fast - sometimes all you need is a couple of quiet days, just the two of you 🌿
🌅 Start your mornings with sunrise yoga or meditation on Binalup / Middleton Beach, where the soft winter light stretches across Mammang-Koort / King George Sound 🧘♀️
Following with a nourishing brunch, think warm sourdough, seasonal produce, free-range eggs, at places like Bredco or Emu Point Cafe 🍞
Spend your days walking bush trails at Corndarup / Mount Clarence or Torndirrup National Park, soaking in the sights at The Gap and Natural Bridge or finding a secluded moment for breathwork among the peppermint trees ☀
Treat yourselves to a couples massage or spa therapy using native botanicals, followed by herbal tea and an afternoon nap wrapped in soft blankets while the winter rain patters outside 🌧
No rigid itineraries, no pressure... Just space to reconnect, reset your nervous system, and leave with full hearts and clear minds 💟

Visitors can also take a day trip to the Porongurup National Park or the Stirling Range National Park, home to Bluff Knoll, the highest peak in WA and one of the only places in the state which experiences snowfall.
