Ancient Lands, New Adventures
Embraced by two ancient mountain ranges, Mount Barker and its surrounding towns are treasures waiting to be discovered.
To the south, the Porongurup Range is an ancient escarpment known for its rounded granite domes, rich biodiversity, karri forests and stunning trails.
To the north lies the much younger Stirling Range – a popular attraction for the thrill seekers, with Bluff Knoll offering climbers spectacular views and occasional snow during winter. The Stirling Range is recognised as one of the richest areas for flora in the world.
The region is abundant in natural, indigenous and colonial history, and the land whispers quiet secrets. The local people share their stories of passion and a genuine love for the land on which they live.
Filled with adventure, discovery and pleasure, Mountain Country WA will take your breath away and refresh and renew your soul.
