Best Things to do in Cape Range National Park

Cape Range National Park

Today we will take you to explore a hidden gem in the Southern Hemisphere! Located on the northwest corner of North West Cape, Western Australia, Cape Range National Park is a hidden treasure just like Perth!

Countless rugged limestone ranges are surrounded by the deep blue sea on three sides, and the profound canyons cast changing shadows under the different angles of sunlight. The western side of the park boasts stunning natural landscapes, including pristine beaches stretching up to 60 kilometres.

Cape Range National Park – Things to experience

The park’s remote location means it’s teeming with wildlife. You can spot emus, echidnas, lizards, wallabies, kangaroos, Australian wild dogs, and a variety of bird species.

During ancient times, rising sea levels submerged lower-lying areas, isolating Cape Range National Park as an independent island. Thanks to this unique geographical isolation, the park is home to several endemic species.

Among the park’s attractions, Shothole Canyon and Charles Knife Canyon are favourites among outdoor enthusiasts.

Driving along the off-road gravel tracks, exploring the spectacular canyons and ranges step by step on hiking trails, even roadside wildflowers will fill you with joy!
