ITINERARY
The Great Southern Region
Day 1 Perth – Albany
Leisurely travel to the impressive Karri forests of the Pemberton region. Here we admire one of the highest “Fire Spotting Trees” in the world. The Valley of the Giants, a section of forest appropriately named for its huge trees, is our next destination. Tree Top Walk offers an amazing bird’s eye view to this window of the past. Much of the plant life in this region is unique to the southwest of Western Australia. Via Denmark, we reach Albany, Western Australia’s first settlement, in the evening.
Accommodation: Quality Suites Banksia Gardens, Albany (Breakfast)
Day 2 Albany – Hyden
A city tour of Albany and the magnificent panorama view from Mt. Clarence overlooking King George Sound, where the first settlers landed in 1826, let you realize the importance of this town to Western Australia. Afterwards we will be exploring “Natural Bridge and The Gap” in Torndirrup National Park. The tour continues with a drive through farmland in the Stirling Range. The many different varieties of plants originating in the Stirling Range are mainly due to its insular location. This mountain range is a climatic island and the plain is typical for its dry and warm weather conditions. Late afternoon we will arrive in Hyden.
Accommodation: Wave Rock Motel, Hyden (Breakfast)
Day 3 Hyden – Perth
After breakfast, we visit the famous Wave Rock, with ample time to explore and learn about this remarkable natural formation. Our journey continues through the West Australian wheat belt, reaching York by lunchtime. Take a stroll through the oldest inland settlement of W.A., where beautifully restored facades evoke the atmosphere of pioneer days. Later, we visit Mundaring Weir, a significant piece of Western Australian history. Built in the late 19th century, the weir was a major engineering feat designed to supply water to the goldfields.
After this fascinating stop, we enjoy a relaxing drive back to Perth, concluding the tour at your hotel.
