Just 3 hours north of Perth by car lies
Western Australia's Mid West region. Known to many as the 'wildflower region',
this area is home to one of the world's finest collections of flowering
plants.
In this region (subject to seasonal rains), you can immerse
yourself in, and wander through spectacular fields of yellow, pink and white
coloured everlasting daisies during the season (late July - early September),
and marvel at the well-known wreath flower (Leschenaultia
macrantha).
The Kalbarri National Park boasts 800 species of flowering
shrubs and between June and November in the Eneabba and Arrowsmith River areas,
you will find national parks amidst sandplain country that offer flora as
spectacular as it is varied. During the season, wildflower walks are conducted
daily from the Western Flora Caravan Park by botanist Allan Tinker.
The
world-renowned botanists, photographers and film-makers who visit this region,
rub their eyes at the richness of the year-round flowering plants that grow here
- one of the world's most wildflower rich areas. But the wildflowers are not the
only attraction in the Mid West. A region rich in history, it offers an exciting
combination of outback experiences and coastal activities. There are national
parks to explore, sheer coastal cliffs to marvel at, authentic outback stations
to visit, offshore islands to dive from, adventurous activities such as
abseiling, rock climbing, canoeing, sunset horse rides, and one of the world's
richest collections of seafood to
sample.
