Mitchell Falls Camping Ground — Hotel in Mitchell Plateau

They are ok. Like most of the west Australia parks we have visited the roads in there are appalling. Grade them for goodness sake. It's took over 45min to do 19km. The main road is little better.

Then back along the river towards the falls passing a number of smaller falls and lands at Mitchell Falls. Have a swim before the 4km return walk over big Mertens Falls and under Little Mertens Falls...

You can also buy your Ngauwudu Road Zone Pass here if you haven't purchased it beforehand. The access road is very rough and corrugated in places. Expect to take close to 3 hours from the...
