A trip to
the Giant Tingle Tree would not be complete without a visit to Circular
Pool. To get there, turn right out of the car park at the Giant Tingle and
follow the signs. The Frankland River rushes over rocky outcrops and into a roughly circular area surrounded by high granite cliffs. This area is known as Circular Pool and is a soothing spot to sit and contemplate the world, the universe, and all those things. Alternatively, you can go clambering over the granite outcrops and explore. Hillside Road is one-way, so you continue on around the ring road. You will drive past Tingleview Estate - where John Thompson spent 30 years unsuccessfully searching his land for a giant Tingle tree which he had been told was on the property. A bulldozer driver found it when they were doing the roadworks in preparation for marketing the estate. That tree is BIG! Continue driving past Tingleview Estate (unless you are interested in buying one of the lovely blocks there, in which case head for Walpole Real Estate), and you will arrive at a T-junction. You have arrived at North Walpole Road. Turn left and you will almost immediately arrive in town. Turn right and you eventually end up back at Jenny's Lake. Contact details
