Journey through Western Australia’s wheatbelt to Hyden – home of Wave Rock,
truly one of Australia’s most incredible natural landforms. Leaving Perth we
head through the Perth Hills and escarpment and enter farming country. Heading
east, we enjoy morning tea (own expense) at historic York, the first township
founded in the Avon Valley. From there we travel the Wheatbelt Highway through
the agricultural towns of Corrigin and Kondinin; through outback farming
country – giving a glimpse of Australian country life.

We then stop briefly at the infamous Dog Cemetery, a shrine to man’s best
friend and an integral part of farming life. Then visit Hippo’s Yawn, a rock
formation which resembles a hippo yawning. We then break for an Aussie country
style lunch at the Wildflower Shop.

Whilst here, visit either a Wildlife Park, view a unique Antique Lace
Collection – even featuring lace from Lady Diana, or visit the amazing Toy
Soldier museum.

Then we move on to see the spectacular prehistoric rock formation of Wave Rock
and sacred Aboriginal sites. Leaving Wave Rock, we visit Hippo's Yawn and
Mulka’s Cave.

We return to Perth with a stop at a remote country town for a light afternoon
tea and snack (own expense) arriving approximately at 8:30pm.
