The Island Pool Walk is a 2km grade 3 trail leaves the southern corner of the upper car park at the Island Pool day use area. The trail starts up a flight of steps and a steep rise though jarrah forest and wattles. At this point, the forest begins to thin a little and the balgas (grass tree) become more numerous. Continue along a gentle slope up the valley side.
Balgas begin to dominate as the trail passes between granite outcrops. You are now at the highest part of the trail. There is a seat where you can rest awhile and take in the views of the valley below.
Begin your decent down a gentle slope. The track zig zags for a short distance down a steeper part of the valley side and moves back in to the jarrah forest. From here, it is a short distance back to the upper car park

The Nanga Brook Walk Trail passes through the Nanga area, which was once a thriving timber mill town, operating from 1900 until the devastating fires of 1961. The trail can be started from either Nanga townsite or Nanga Mill campground.
Entrance to the trail at Nanga Townsite is towards the western end of the campground, opposite a parking bay, near the brook. Pass the trailhead sign through a grove of tea trees down to the creek across the bridge, then uphill thought the dense undergrowth of the jarrah forest. The trail meanders along Nanga Brook through to Nanga Mill campground assisted from time to time with wooden steps. The walk returns along the same path to Nanga Townsite where the remains of orchards planted by the early residents can be seen.
Entrance to the trail at Nanga Mill campground is towards the eastern end of the site, above the small wooden bridge that crosses the creek.
