About the Jarrahdale 1872 Timber Tramway

The trail follows the original 1872 timber tramway, passing the disused old bauxite railway, through mixed jarrah/marri forest to the edge of the scarp into wandoo country.

The trail follows the route of a timber tramway built in 1872. It starts at an information bay 1 km west of Jarrahdale at the corner of Nettleton Road and Jarrahdale Road.

It includes a loop (not on the railway formation) and several quite steep sections.

There are box drains beneath the rail track made entirely of jarrah sleepers that have survived since the railway was built.
