Karlkurla Bushland Park
This evening I followed the cycle path I described earlier, but in the opposite direction. About 400 metres from my house is the entrance to Karlkurla Bushland Park.
The park has a sealed track looping 4km through restored native vegetation. There’s a lookout tower along the route offering great views of the surrounding countrywise.
It was a pleasant evening and I really enjoyed the walk. The bush is totally different to Victoria, of course, but there’s a natural beauty about red earth that’s quintessentially Australian.
As one of my aunts told me to expect before I arrived, the bush around Kalgoorlie is more thickly forested than many easterners might imagine. The Salmon Gums in particular are delightful trees and can grow to 25 metres high.
The park has helpful interpretive signs and picnic tables. Visitors are encouraged to spread seed for Silky Pear.
