Z Bend River Trail, Kalbarri National Park.
If you ever find yourself in Kalbarri National Park, Western Australia, be sure to head out and enjoy the Z Bend River Trail and the Four Ways Trail. You will not be disappointed.
Z Bend River Trail - 1:15
Four Ways Trail - 5:26
The Z Bend River Trail is a grade 3, 2.5 km hike located very close to the Z Bend Lookout. As you make your way towards the lookout you will see a turn off on your right that takes you down the River Trail. The Z Bend River Trail is quite steep and encounters several ladders and areas of mild climbing, I personally would not recommend doing it with kids under the age of 5. That said, it is a great hike and the rewards at the bottom are breathtaking.
The Four Ways Trail is a slightly easier hike, although longer at 6km return and listed as a grade 4 hike. I personally just found this hike safer and more kid friendly. Afterall, we are a Travel With Kids channel :). As you make your way towards the lookout, you will see a sign for the trail on your left pretty close to the trail entrance. The hike starts off quiet sandy, but quickly becomes rocky and uneven in places. Good shoes are recommended and take your time. I did see several families doing this hike with younger kids. You just need to decide if your kids are up for a 6km hike.
Important to note: There is a $15 fee to enter the Kalbarri National Park (as with almost all Western Australia National Parks) and once you enter the park, you still have roughly 25km to drive before you arrive at the Z Bend Lookout, the Z Bend River Trail and the Four Ways Trail.
If you plan to travel with kids, there are tons of things to do in Kalbarri National Park. If hiking is not on your list of things to do, at very least venture out to the Sky Walk, Natures Window and of course the Z Bend Lookout.
