Wave Rock Trail Walk
This trail starts on the Wave Rock Walk and links to the old quarry at the western end of the Wave. It then takes you up onto the top of the main rock formation, where you can do one of two loops:

The shorter loop is 860 metres long, while the longer route is 1300 metres. Both return to the main parking area.

Both loops are well marked, and feature unobtrusive interpretative signage about the rock, its geology and formations, and the plants and animals that live on it.
