About this place

The granite outcrop is covered in mosses and lichens that turn bright green and dry out to orange and yellow with the changing seasons throughout the year. Avoid treading on the moss. During the rainy season you'll even find rock pools. The elevated, open expanse of the rock allows for views of the surrounding hills including Mount Vincent and the ridge line of Mount Cooke to the south-east.

A small picnic area beneath shady pine trees across the road from Sullivan Rock has picnic tables and space for parking. Please bring your own drinking water and take your rubbish home.

The Bibbulmun Track, a long distance walking trail, goes right past Sullivan's Rock. The Sullivan Rock parking area is a popular access point to the track.
