Tour of the Wave Rock National Park

 Western Australia, Australia

Out in the wide sky wheat plains, Wave Rock stands as if it were a perfect surfers' wave frozen in solid rock. The colonial town of York, set in the lush Avon Valley, tiny wheat lands townships and other strange rocks protruding from arid soil show the real Australia, always waiting for life-giving rains. Walking through a carpet of wildflowers, under a bright blue sky, listening to the wind in the Sheoak trees, you will come across a magnificent, prehistoric rock formation. You will marvel at the size and shape, eroded by the weather over millions and millions of years. This is Wave Rock. Climb to the top and enjoy the view of the surrounding farm land, shiny salmon gum-forests, and the beautiful salty scrubby bush. This is Australia at its finest. Take a short walk to Hippo's Yawn, offering spectacular views of the orchids and wildflowers in spring.
