A Sunset Hike You Won’t Forget

Your journey begins at 4:30 PM, departing the trailhead at picturesque Whalers Cove. In the late afternoon soft light over the landscape, you’ll embark on a fully guided walk along a trail in nature. The path, ranging from easy stretches to moderate inclines, winds through coastal bushland, along the beach and onto the granite rise at Uredale Point. See the majestic and captivating King George Sound, the serene water in Princess Royal Harbour, and foamy waves at Bramble Beach. Feel the fresh evening air and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Albany coastline. 

Throughout your approximately 2-hour walk to Uredale Point and back, your expert guide will share stories of First Nations man, Uredale; a Menang elder. A narrative is woven that brings to life the connection to the bloodroot plant. 

At Uredale Point, pause for the highlight of the experience—a breathtaking Albany sunset. As the light shifts and colours deepen across the coastline, you’ll feel the vastness, stillness and beauty of this remote landscape.

As you absorb the stunning views, indulge in gourmet snacks to enhance your comfort and enjoyment amidst the evening’s splendour. Memories to last a lifetime. 

The adventure continues when you don your headtorch to retrace your steps along the trail.  Across the granite, through the shadowy bushland, along the beach and through the dune to your start point. Lift your sight to the stellar night sky and stars above. Stunning!
