Abyssinia Rock is a hidden gem on the Bibbulmun Track and a real a treat to explore!

This 11km hike begins by taking you slightly uphill through dense jarrah and she-oak bushland, filled with grass trees, banksias and a variety of wildflowers. After a couple of kms the trail narrows and starts to wind across a ridge, a break in the trees to the south gives you a glimpse of the amazing views to come! Following the Wagyl, you begin to make your way downhill to the giant granite dome – Abyssinia Rock!
