Where are your favourite roads to drive in Perth/Hills area? or anywhere in WA. I personally enjoy the windy roads. Hadrill Rd, Weir Rd, off Tooday road, also up in the Kalamunda hills are lots of fun!!

I've driven from scarborough to hillaries, that was a decent drive

Not a whole lot of variety in WA unfortunately. less straight roads and more windy roads, petition to Colin Barnett, who's in??

Also, some of the smaller roads heading down towards Dwellingup are very nice, scenic, although some involve driving on gravel around some pretty decent bends.

Would you recommend the whole road (from Vasse Highway all the way to manjimup)

Its most of the middle section, but I did the drive from Manjimup towards Vasse... had just gotten off the road running thru manjimup because the heavy rains reduced visibility to only a few metres & everyone was driving around 80 km/h but not really keeping their distance. The trees lining Graphite Road provided some cover from both rain and sun, add the not-so-straight road... and I was enjoying that driveso much I wanted to turn around and do out again. LOL
