Malabar Headland Walks

There are, in fact, two great walks within the Malabar Headland National Park, and since both are relatively short, we recommend bolting them together for a double dose of coastal beauty in one hit. The Western Escarpment Walking Track is further inland, exploring the native heathlands, but it still has stunning ocean panoramas. A sturdy boardwalk runs the entire length of this track, so it’s perfect for those in need of surer footing. The Boora Point Walking Track offers some more challenging terrain closer to the sea cliffs, and during the season, this 3.7km track is a fabulous place for a spot of whale watching. While there are sections of boardwalk on this stretch, some of this walk is pretty exposed, and therefore best tackled during fairer weather.
