The Granite Skywalk is a suspended walkway on the huge granite outcrop of Castle Rock.
This reserve is owned and maintained by the Friends of the Porongurup Range. The reserve is open to the public for day use, with a sheltered BBQ pavilion and several walk trails. There is limited access to some areas as a result of ongoing revegetation projects and dieback concerns. Access via a closed gate off Knight Road. Please open and close the entry gate when driving in and please use the dieback stations. Great for a peaceful walk amongst nature especially during wildflower season. Trails have been marked with information near the BBQ area and carpark with toilets.
A moderate two hour walk to take you to the highest peak of the Porongurup Ranges. With sweeping views from the summit, to the South over the Indian Ocean on a clear day and Stirling Ranges to the North.
Gibraltar Rock is a granite outcrop which is 2,100 feet (640 metres) high. From the peak of this rock, Albany and the Great Southern Ocean can be seen.
