Welcome to a Range of natural attractions

The granite from which Porongurup Range is formed is more than 1,400 million years old and has been exposed by the slow weathering of the softer rocks surrounding the range.

Although only 12 kilometres long and 670 metres at its highest point, the range is renowned for its beauty. It is clothed in a luxuriant forest of giant Karri trees and the understorey puts on a brilliant display of wildflowers during spring and early summer.

Nature lovers will find much to see and do in the National Park and our community-owned Twin Creeks Conservation Reserve.

Why not take up the challenge of identifying over 1,000 species of flowering plants and 78 species of birds, from majestic, soaring wedgetail egles to the electric blue splendid fairy wrens.

Porongurup National Park Walks

There are four recommended walk trails through the Porongurup National Park.

The first three of these begin from the Tree-in-the-Rock picnic area, near the Park's main entry at the end of Bolganup Dam Road.

Other Walks

Wander through the shade of ancient forests, discover fossils underfoot, see a rainbow of wildflowers, sit and listen to a symphony of bird songs, all with the magnificent views of the Stirling and Porongurup Ranges as your backdrop. Twin Creeks conservation area, cared for by the Friends of the Porongurup Range, offers all this, and more.
