Sappers Bridge
Walpole Wilderness Area in the Walpole Region

At Sappers Bridge the sign reads: "Re-built October 1982 for the National Parks Authority by 22nd Construction Squadron RAE following flood damage January 1982" Set with gigantic logs, this bridge appears out of nowhere at the intersection of two dirt tracks. It put into perspective how big and powerful these trees actually are, to so casually carry the burden of our rumbling vehicle. Walpole - Nornalup National Park is filled with Karri and Tingle Forests. Map of the Walpole Wilderness Area and the Walpole-Nornalup National Park.
Walpole Region The Walpole Wilderness Area is an ancient forest with ancient Karri and Giant Tingle stretching up and up!
