Having walked a number of sections of the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail we came back to explore this section which runs north/south and joins the southern Jane Brook line (Bellevue to Sawyers Valley) to the northern Mahogany Creek Deviation line (Bellevue to Mt Helena). The Railway Reserve Heritage Trail continues on from Mt Helena to Chidlow and Woorooloo but that is way too far for us today! This section of trail is about 3km in each direction and will take around 45 min

The section of the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail between Mt Helena and Parkerville has three Fire Recovery Statues commemorating the 2014 Parkerville fire. These provide an added point of interest to what is already a lovely walk along the old Great Eastern Railway line which linked Fremantle to York until it ceased operation in 1966. From Mt Helena the trail continues 5.2km to Chidlow or you can side track 2.7km to Sawyer's Valley on the southern section. For today though
