Ancient Empire Walk, Valley of the Giants

National Parks and Reserves

The Ancient Empire is a 450 metre walk trail that takes you around and through some of the giant tingle trees including the most popular of the gnarled veterans, known as Grandma Tingle. The trail follows the story of the lost era of Gondwana. This ancient and unique red tingle forest is a must-see during your stay in the south-west! The Ancient Empire is only 18 kilometres from Walpole and 52 kilometres from Denmark.

This interpretative trail meanders across the forest floor in between 400-year old red tingle trees. Walking into the hollows of the giant tingle trees is an experience not to be missed!

Guided walks are offered daily outside the school holidays and are free of charge, but may be subject to weather conditions.
