About this place

The grand peaks of the Stirling Range are the first feature that will capture your attention and imagination, but there is also a diverse mix of shady woodlands to explore and enjoy on the lower slopes and valleys in the park.

The woodland at White Gum Flat shelters a wonderland of wildflowers that include delicate orchids, honey bush (Hakea lissocarpha), morning iris (Orthrosanthus laxus) and Veronica’s wattle (Acacia veronica). The woodlands are also home to a diverse range of birdlife, from golden whistlers to red-winged fairy wrens.

Why not stop at White Gum Flat picnic area and take in your surroundings?
