Crooked Brook Forest   'A Forest for All People' 
Discover one of Dardanup's great natural attractions

A Forest for all People
Come explore the magnificent jarrah forest by foot, wheelchair, bus or car. Stop and have a picnic while you admire at the wildflowers or relax by the billabong - only 20 minutes from Bunbury.

Discover Crooked Brook Forest
Situated just 25km from the centre of Bunbury, in the beautiful Ferguson Valley of Dardanup is the Crooked Brook Forest.

This beautiful forest destination continues to be developed by the proud local community into a 'forest for all people'. It provides access for elderly and disabled visitors as well as challenges for the energetic.

Within the tranquility of this unique environment you can take in magnificent views, wildflowers and perhaps even see some of the wildlife.

What you will find.
Four walking trails ranging from a 600m wheelchair path to a scenic 10 km walk trail with views to the coast

  • Parking available to suit all vehicles, including buses and caravans
  • Free gas barbecue
  • Picnic shelter and tables suitable for wheelchairs
  • Wheelchair accessible toilets
  • Information on local wildlife and plants, including life in the 'billabong'
  • A series of plaques depicting the history of the Forest  

A Forest for all Seasons
Come and experience the changes in the Forest from season to season. In winter see the creek overflow the billabong to create a sparkling crystal waterfall. Throughout the year admire the wildflowers which are spectacular in spring.

An Ongoing Community Project
The Crooked Brook Forest Community Group has worked tirelessly, in conjunction with Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC), since 1994 and continues to develop this forest area. The Group is proud to see the Forest being regularly used by senior citizens, school groups, people with disabilities and young families.
