Bald Head track is one of the best day hikes in the Albany Region of the South West. The trail head carpark is short 20min drive from Albany into Torndirrup National Park, where you can also visit the Blowholes, Natural Bridge and The Gap. From here it is a 6.25 km hike (12.5km return) across the dolphin-shaped Flinders Peninsula to the granite domed Bald Head, with sweeping views of King George Sound and the Southern Ocean. The last 2km stretch to the point has some steep, scrambly sections and is quite exposed to wind and weather. If you have any limitations, consider just hiking the first half, as the surrounds and vibrant coastal heath in this section is as good as the rest.

Thanks Bruce! It's one of the best in the South West. Don't even have to go the whole way, just doing the first half is fantastic as well

Can highly recommend it! Definitely one of the best day hikes in the Albany region. You don't even have to do the whole hike. The first 2 hours are fantastic on its own

Would definitely recommend just doing the first part then. Near the end you start getting steep sandy sections and the wind really starts picking up. The views at the start are the best anyways :)

Hi Chris and Dayna! Would you say trekking poles are really helpful for this hike?

@ChrisandDanya 2 жыл бұрын

Hello Larry! Hiking poles would definitely be helpful for this hike. It gets pretty steep and sandy near the end. Danya would say hiking poles are always necessary haha

Pretty sure you can buy pretty cheap pairs from Anaconda or KMart for around $40. Might be good to test them out and see if you like them before investing money in a good pair
