Day 13: Walpole to Booner Mundak Hut

After a resupply in Walpole, the route heads north away from the coast, but don’t worry, you’ll be back.

There are some challenging climbs through this section and some of the most fun singletrack on the entire route as you skirt by the Valley of the Giants and the towering forest. From there, you either head north to the Booner Mundak Hut along the official route or head east on the highway to join up with the Denmark-Nornalup Heritage Rail Trail, which links back up with the route near William Bay.

This detour cuts out some climbing and distance but is a great option if you’ve got bus reservations from Albany.
