About this place
Canebrake Pool is a peaceful and quiet place for camping, picnics, kayaking and swimming in the river surrounded by the jarrah and marri forest of Rapids Conservation Park. It has a picnic area with benches and fire rings, and an embankment with wooden steps providing access to the water.
Adjoining the picnic area a short distance downstream there's a small campground with 9 individual campsites, a few of which are close to the water.
