A 35km drive from Mingenew, the Coalseam Conservation Area is managed by the DBCA (Parks and WIldlife) with 2 Campgrounds available. We were originally going to stay here but had a water pump failure just out of Perth so have no access to our onboard water until it’s replaced.
Adjacent to the main (Miners) campground is the start of a walking trail through the carpet of lowers and up the escarpment to a loop and return; we clocked up 4.25km over about 2 hrs 15 with lots of pictures and a few insect finds for Frances as well.
The displays here are absolutely stunning of both the everlastings (paper daisy types) and the other varieties, click any of the following for the full gallery:
