RV TRAVEL BEEDELUP FALLS
Returning to the forest drive at Vasse Highway , you will travel south for 7km before an unsealed road on the left backtracks into Greater Beedelup and ends at a carpark where a lovely walk leads to a viewing platform and then a suspension bridge over Beedelup Falls before continuing on a circuit back to the carpark . This is one of the highlights of the entire drive .
The drive continues on Vasse for 9km ; at the junction veer right onto unsealed Old Vasse Road . Within 1km is unsealed Ritter Road , offering a side trip that is well worth doing .
It is 11km to Yeagarup Lake in D ’ Entrecasteaux National Park , with Leaning Marri tent campground . A boardwalk at the lake takes you to a lookout of the waters , and to the west , you can see clear evidence of Yeagarup Dunes slowly swallowing up the forest .

YEAGARUP TRACK
The 10km 4WD-only Yeagarup Track , starting about 2km from the lake at the DPaW registration station , leads to Yeagarup Beach across a series of shifting sand dunes . This challenging drive is for experienced sand-drivers only . It is best left for another day and should only be attempted in a convoy of at least two 4WDs with high clearance and low range , full recovery gear , an air-compressor and tyre gauge , a shovel and a means of emergency communication .
Only drive where wooden stakes mark the way through the dunes . Check with DPaW in Pemberton and / or the visitor centre before attempting this track . Be advised that if you get stuck here and have to dig your way out of the sand on a hot day , you are not going to enjoy it .
