Lesueur National Park has a wide range of geological formations, landscape and soil types. These vary from salt lakes and remnant coastal dunes in the north west through to laterite ridges in the east. That is one of the motives of the huge diversity of the park's flora. The park boasts an exceptionally diverse range of flora, with more than 900 species comprising 10% of the State's known flora. Best time to visit is late winter and spring. There's a 18 km one way sealed road that takes you through the park, with regular parking spots to stop, take photos and enjoy the scenery. Several trails invite you to enjoy the scenery. There are picnic areas where you can have your lunch, with well kept facilities. There's a campground at about 12 km on the Yonga trail with a shelter rainwater tank and toilet. You need to book online. Firearms and pets are not permitted. Picking wildflowers is not allowed. And you must take your litter with you when leaving. There's an easy pay entry fee (pensioners discount). A place worth for an enjoyable...

The flowers and scenery are absolutely stunningly beautiful. An afternoon hike as the sun is coming down is gorgeous. Just be careful leaving and have a roo spotter as you will see some! This is one of my favourite places to hike in Australia. Put it on your...
