Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk

The Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk is truly one of the iconic experiences in Western Australia and absolutely worth a visit if you’re in the Albany, Walpole, or Denmark region. We stopped here on our way back from Albany, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of the trip. The treetop walkway takes you high up into the canopy of the famous tingle trees, giving you a completely different perspective of the forest. The views are breathtaking, and it feels like walking among giants hence the name! The walkway is very safe and stable, so even if you’re a little nervous with heights, it’s still very manageable and well worth it. This is also a wonderful place for families. Our kids absolutely loved it, especially discovering the two fairy doors hidden along the way little touches that spark curiosity and imagination. On the ground level, the Ancient Empire walk is equally fascinating, taking you past enormous trunks and hollowed trees that have stood for centuries. If you time your visit well, I highly recommend staying for the sunset. Watching the forest glow with golden light from up in the treetops is a magical experience we’ll never forget. There’s also a visitor centre with a gift shop and friendly staff who are more than happy to share local knowledge about the trees and the region. Parking is easy, and the site is well-maintained, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Overall, the Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk is a must visit attraction in the South West whether you’re a couple, a family with kids, or a solo traveller. It’s both educational and awe inspiring, and it makes you appreciate just how special and unique Western Australia’s forests really are.

A dreamy place for a walk in the woods. We recommend the free guided tour. The path through the ancient empire is especially interesting for children, as there are dwarf doors to discover in some of the tree trunks. The treetop walkway is breathtaking. Those who are afraid of heights should be aware that the bridges sway a bit. In return, you'll enjoy fantastic views from 40 meters above the ground.

Saw this place on a TV show and thought us live to go there. Thankfully it lived up to the billing. Reasonable entrance fee tgat gives you access to two walks, one of which is through the tree canopy on a well contrcted framework of bridges and platforms. The other walk is through the forest with lots of information boards along the way. We were 4 adults and three children all under 10. All of us really enjoyed it. The gift shop at the entrance had plenty of reasonably priced merchandise too. Would visit again if I am lucky to be in the area

Lovely walk through an ancient forest. I preferred the walk at ground level vantage point, but the tree top walk was certainly beautiful too. We came first thing in the morning and it became busy very quickly! Go early to avoid crowds.

We visited on a public holiday during school holidays and it did get busy by late morning there was no long waits for tickets. (You can pre purchase. Concession available.) I would recommend going at a quieter time to soak in the beautiful surrounds. Highly recommended. Especially so if you love birding. Great views of birds including many rosellas and Gilbert’s honeyeaters. Also enjoyed the free walk at the end: ‘Ancient Empire.’

After a busy day at work, I decided to finish up a bit early to take a drive for a walk among nature. I’d seen signage for the Valley of the Giants and thought it would be a lovely way to finish the day. The drive is pretty easy, a couple of sharp turns along the winding road but once you arrive there is plenty of parking. The entrance, and the Tree Top Walk itself, is flat so is suitable for prams and wheelchairs. The Tree Top Walk is about 600m long and is on a really gentle gradient. So whether you’re as fit as a fiddle or a bit of a slow walker, it’s suitable for all. After each short walk, there is a junction point of a couple of metres diameter where you can rest or go past anyone who is a bit slower than you are. I was there at the end of the day, in winter, so pretty much had the whole Tree Top Walk to myself 😊 You don’t need to worry about heights as the highest point is only 40 metres above ground and be aware there is a little bit of movement in the platforms as you walk, but you are completely safe. Just make sure you hold on to your phone or camera, wouldn’t want to drop it! The view from the walk is beautiful. Listening to the sounds of nature and looking up at the trees which are at least another 10 metres above you is so relaxing. Make sure you take some time to also appreciate how they constructed the wealk. Very minimal damage to the bush and it kinda blends in….well at least it’s not an eyesore. 😉 Once you’ve done the loop of the Tree Top Walk, there is a ground level Ancient Empire walk where you are walking among, and sometimes through, the trees. Nearly all of this 650m walk is accessible for all abilities and it’s really pretty. There are signs along the way and some great photo ops too. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

We recently had the chance to experience the Valley of the Giants Treetop Walk, and it was truly unforgettable. This place is a real standout for anyone who loves nature. As we climbed to a height of 40 meters, we felt completely surrounded by the ancient 400-year-old gum trees, their towering gnarled branches stretching majestically towards the sky and sometimes crossing our path so slightly. From the moment we stepped onto the walkway, the fresh scent of eucalyptus filled the air, reminding us of the vibrant ecosystem all around, and we could hear the soothing sounds of the forest—the rustling leaves and distant bird calls. The walkway gently sways beneath your feet, so if you’re not a fan of heights, it might give you vertigo, but it’s all part of the experience! Walking among the treetops, we were captivated by the stunning views. The lush canopy with its vibrant mix of native greens and the pops of color from the wildflowers peeking through on the forest floor. Each step offered a new perspective, and we couldn’t resist putting a short video together to capture the breathtaking scenes and serenity of this forest. After our adventure above the trees, we took a peaceful stroll through the Ancient Empire Walk below. This serene path winds through a grove of ancient tingle trees, creating an almost magical atmosphere. It was the perfect spot to pause, reflect, and appreciate the incredible history of these giants that have stood for centuries. The Valley of the Giants Treetop Walk is more than just an attraction; it’s a celebration of nature. The well-kept pathways and friendly staff made the experience even more enjoyable. Without a doubt, this was one of the highlights of our trip through the South West, and we can’t recommend it enough. If you get the chance, don’t miss the opportunity to walk among these giants—your spirit will thank you!

What an awesome experience to spend in nature. Everything was safe and well maintained. The views were outstanding. Definitely worth the trip

A good tree top walk in the Valley of Giants. I'm typically afraid of heights. However, the large structure and clear sturdiness of this tree top walk sets it apart from others. It is a very easy walk, and does not require significant levels of fitness. The staff are very friendly and offer great tips on other local attractions.
