The Yaburara Heritage Trail is a 3.6-kilometre loop walking trail in the hills behind Karratha in Western Australia's Pilbara region. Named after the Yaburara people, it traverses rocky ridges overlooking Nickol Bay and the Dampier Archipelago. The trail features interpretive signage about Aboriginal heritage, local flora and fauna, and historic land use, with lookouts and examples of rock engravings, offering insight into the area's natural and cultural landscape.

Visitors can expect a marked 3.6 km loop trail through low rocky hills and spinifex-covered ridges behind central Karratha. The route includes interpretive signs, elevated lookouts with panoramic views over Karratha, Nickol Bay and the Dampier Archipelago, and opportunities to see native plants, wildlife and Aboriginal rock engravings. The trail is exposed with little shade, has uneven rocky surfaces and some steep sections, and is explored on foot.
