Day 1: North Bannister (Albany highway) to White Horse Hills (17.6km)

Day 2. White Horse Hills to Mt Wells (14.5km)
Huge jumbled boulders, ragged outcrops, great wildflowers and testing trails give this range of hills a remote and wild feeling.

Apart from the ascent of Mt Wells the trail is flat so if you wish you can combine day 2 and 3.
