Moore River National Park Adventures

Moore River National Park is located approximately 100 kilometers north of Perth in Western Australia. The park stretches along the Moore River and encompasses a mix of coastal sand dunes, woodlands, and wetlands. It supports a wide variety of flora including banksias, jarrah, and sheoak trees, as well as fauna such as western grey kangaroos, emus, and numerous bird species including honeyeaters and parrots. The river estuary is particularly important as a habitat for migratory birds and provides an excellent fishing location. The landscape features gently undulating terrain with walking trails and picnic areas that appeal to families and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Aboriginal heritage is significant in this region, with traditional owners having a deep connection to the land. Recreational activities include hiking, mountain biking on designated trails, canoeing, and photography. Notable landmarks within the park include the Moore River estuary and surrounding coastal wetlands, providing scenic vistas and quiet natural spaces. The park’s proximity to coastal towns like Guilderton allows visitors to combine a natural experience with beach visits. Its relatively small size compared to other regional parks contributes to a more intimate and tranquil experience, perfect for day trips as well as short camping excursions. Conservation efforts focus on protecting native species and habitats, managing invasive plants, and maintaining the health of the river ecosystem.
