Kalbarri Coastal Gorges

Kalbarri Coastal Gorges and Cliffs
From Red Bluff, named by Willen de Vlamingh in 1697, the spectacular coastal cliffs extend 13km to the Parks southern boundary and offer panoramic views, Whale watching sites and secluded beaches.

Mushroom Rock Walk Trail
See how nature has shaped this dramatic coastal landscape. Marvel at the varied geological formations and witness Kangaroos feeding (best seen dawn and dusk) amidst the beautiful coastal heath. Allow an hour to stroll the marked circuit that connects Rainbow Valley and Mushroom Rock.

Island Rock and Natural Bridge
As the coastline slowly yields to the force of the ocean, the fracturing and decaying of the cliffs sculpt some rather precarious rock formations. Spectacular views can be enjoyed from the safety of the lookout enclosures. Wheelchair accessible picnic shelter and toilets have also been newly constructed.

Pot Alley & Eagle Gorge
Both sites provide stunning coastal scenery and stepped paths to secluded beaches.

Wittecarra Creek
South of the Kalbarri township is Wittecarra Creek thought to be site of the marooning of Dutch sailors punished for their part in the Batavia mutiny at the Abrolhos Islands in 1629. Wittecarra is today a popular fishing spot.

Red Bluff
Red Bluff heralds the start of the coastal gorges and is well known for its scenery, snorkelling and fishing. Red Bluff also boasts white a sandy beach, ideal for swimming.
