MARGARET RIVER REGION

Hike or mountain bike along forest trails that hug the stunning coastline, surf world-class breaks and cruise alongside migrating whales and other native wildlife.

Choose your dream adventure

• Hit the road less travelled and head out on one of the region’s many mountain biking and cycling trails in Nannup and Pemberton, including the world-famous Munda Biddi.

• Catch world class waves with over 135 km of coastline and 75 breaks to choose from – there’s a wave here for everyone.

• Taste the region’s finest drops on a winery, distillery or brewery tour.

• Picnic or camp among the karri trees in Boranup Forest and stargaze at an endless canopy of constellations at Injidup Natural Spa.

• Immerse yourself in Wardandi Noongar culture on an Aboriginal tour and taste the flavours and learn the stories of this region.

• Walk a section of the 135km-long Cape to Cape Track (or all of it, if you’re game!), and spot sea creatures, beautiful wildflowers and magnificent coast along the way.

• Wander further and experience where the Southern and Indian Ocean meet at Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, Australia’s tallest mainland lighthouse.

• Go on an underground tour to explore the magical awe of the region’s four ancient limestone caves – Jewel, Lake, Mammoth and Ngilgi.

• Soak up the sun or pause to marvel in the dreamy Indian Ocean sunsets as you cast a line on your next South West fishing expedition.

• Recharge your spirit and try coasteering, stand up paddle boarding or horse riding.
