The historic Dwellingup Forest  Train will take you 8 Kilometres eastward from Dwellingup to Etmilyn, along the state's last surviving lightly built developmental railway. 

 
The fascinating running commentary will inform you about Western Australia's early saw milling and railway history. At over 100 years old, Steam Locomotive G 123 steams across the Davis Brook Bridge heading for Dwellingup on return from Etmilyn

At the end of the line there is a 20-25 minute walk trail through the beautiful plant life and seasonal wildflowers of the rare Jarrah Forest.
