Our short-break park passes will make planning your next holiday even easier. Take your pick from a 5 day or 14 day holiday pass and start exploring your way to Kalbarri. 

July to October is wildflower season and also an ideal time to head north to Kalbarri National Park. Along the way visit Yanchep, Nambung (Pinnacles) and Lesueur national parks using your 5 day park pass for just $25.

  • Enjoy a coffee or morning tea while you watch the passing kangaroos, koalas and birdlife at Yanchep National Park or take a cave tour.
  • Stop in at Nambung National Park to see the Pinnacles and make sure you visit the Pinnacles Desert Discovery. Enjoy a beach walk and barbecue at Hangover Bay and check out the stromatolites at Lake Thetis.
  • Take a leisurely tour of Lesueur National Park, a biodiversity hotspot, on the one-way Lesueur Scenic Drive and stretch your legs at Drummonds or at Cockleshell Gully. Take one of the walk trails to get a closer look at the blooming wildflowers.
  • A hot tip from us to you, is that there is plenty to do at Kalbarri and we recommend staying in town and allowing at least 2 days to explore the river gorge areas and coastal cliffs.

A park pass is the best value-for-money option for holidays whether you choose one of the new passes or an existing 4 week or annual pass. They can all be purchased online at shop.dbca.wa.gov.au, or at Parks and Wildlife Service offices, selected tourism outlets and visitor centres.

Updated information on park passes, visitor fees, campgrounds and facilities is available at exploreparks.dbca.wa.gov.au/know/fees.
