The Wheatbelt region is a land of striking contrasts, with open farmlands, rust-red granite outcrops, salt lake views and numerous nature reserves. Marvel at the magnificent views from Elachbutting Rock or follow the Granite Loop Trail in spring and explore a wonderland of wildflowers.

The Wheatbelt region blooms to life with dashes of colours throughout the season, which typically lasts between July and October with an abundance of Orchids and Everlastings across the Wheatbelt, plus more.
