Denmark- Nornalup Heritage Rail Trail

I recently did a ride on this trail. Not too bad, a bit soft in places. Worth doing if you are in the Denmark/Nornalup area. Be aware that the whole trail is not complete. The section I did is between Kent river and Denmark - worth a look if you are in the area. I posted a story on everytrail that you can read or download to phone if you like - see it at Denmark - Nornalup Heritage Rail Trail<h2><a…See More
