Ancient Mountains of the Great Southern Region
Billion year old mountains and karri forest. Lands rich in unique plants and vibrant wildflowers. Heart-pumping peak hikes. Prehistoric insects and invertebrates. World-class Riesling and family-owned wineries. Breath-taking views. Night skies that are the perfect dark canvas for the stars and planets. Local produce that’s so fresh, you can taste the difference. Vibrant communities with art, history and culture pulsing through their veins.
Nestled between the amazing Southern Ocean, the rich karri forests of Denmark and Pemberton, and the vibrant golden outback, Mountain Country is Western Australia’s best kept secret.
The rugged Stirling Range National Park, the ancient Porongurup, and the vibrant surrounding towns – discover ancient lands and new adventures!

BERUC
The first summer, when reptiles prepare to shed their skin, temperatures begin to rise and rainfall reduces. Noongar people burnt mosaic sections of scrub land with fire-stick farming. An abundance of food was found along coastal lakes and river estuaries.
The Moodjar or WA Christmas Tree are considered sacred to the #Noongar people, holding special spiritual significance as the keep of spirits of those who have passed. They flower throughout Beruc and can be found in abundance in #MountainCountryWA
