General Information:

The State Route 104 segment of the Vasse Highway is a rural highway connecting the seaside holiday town of Busselton with the southwestern WA town of Nannup, and eventually with south parts of the states (via other route numbers).

It consists entirely of 2 lane single carriageway rural highway, with generally wide shoulders, but no overtaking lanes, however, plenty of overtaking opportunities do exist. The route passes though several national parks and state forests, consisting mainly of jarrah and karri forests. It also travels though farming zones and of course commercial and residential areas within the towns it goes through.
