Granite Sky Walk–Porongurup National Park

 

Porongurup National Park is about 40 km north of Albany in south west Western Australia. There are a number of walks to do in the park, but we only did the smallest as we were travelling through. We did the Castle Rock walk which is 4.4km return. The walk is straight up the hill for 2.2km until you reach the summit and the granite sky walk.

The view from the top is amazing as you look out over the fields of canola (vibrant yellow) and the Stirling Ranges in the distance.

You need to climb over some of the boulders using hand and foot holds.

You can check out the National Park website here (Porongurup National Park) and watch some videos of the Skywalk and its construction.
