kalbarri national park coastal cliffs

Unfortunately the flies were relentless that day (we did not bring a fly net). This somewhat spoiled the fun when we visited 'Natural Bridge'. Stunning view and well accessible for less abled people. Next stop was Pot alley, where the wind picked up and blew away the flies. Again nice scenery.The stone Cliffs form a staircase to the sea and when the sea is not too rough there is a small beach one can visit. Wind really got strong when we visited 'Red Bluff'. We enjoyed just sitting there and seeing a big thunder storm rolling onto Kalbarri in the afternoon.

Kalbarri National Park looks a bit like the miniature Grand Canyon. Mind blowing views make this trip to a very special adventure you will never forget!

Visited many of the coastal cliffs one beautiful, calm, late afternoon/sunset. Hadn't visited them for over 20 years and had forgotten how wonderful/spectacular they are. Partic impressed with sealed access to all cliffs which also featured great lookout points with associated interpretation, safe parking and walk trails. Some also had toilet facilities. Considerable effort has also been put into preserving the natural. The cliffs are a must if visiting Kalbarri.

Kalbarri is full of lookouts and walkways that are truly amazing to see. From the coastal beauty of places such as 'Pot Alley', where the jagged cliffs are pounded by the Indian Ocean, to the incredible vastness and amazing view of the 'Z Bend', where the river runs through the inland rock.You may even get a peek at the wildlife hiding all around you. Lizards and wallabies, dragonflies and the occasional goat.Favourite Inland spots were 'Z Bend' and Natures window ($12 for entry), Coastal Cliffs was 'Natural Bridge' and 'Redbluff' (free)There are a variety of different level walks which are all sign posted, making it easy to pick which may suit your situation i.e. pram/wheelchair. We took our 4yr old and 3yr old and they loved it! Clearly we couldn't do the longer walks but managed to see nearly all of the sites including walking down to the river via the Ross Graham lookout (my husbands favourite Inland). Even the beaches in Kalbarri are a great place to spend your day on the coast. Don't forget your camera. Sunscreen and a hat is a must in the hot weather, and take PLENTY of water, you'll need it.

Cliffs are nice. There is a nice short walking trail around Mushroom Rock (going there and back apr. 1,5 km). Beautiful spot, very good wiews on the coastal scenery.

Kalbarri NP has an amazing landscape and the coastal cliffs are amazing. Watch for dolphins down below.

Beautiful, although with young children you must be careful, especially around the cliffs. The best of the coastal cliffs for us was Natural Bridge and Island Rock.

As we new nothing about Kalbarri,we were quite amazed at the attraction and the scenery. All the points of interest,cater for all ages, nearly all the walking tracks have a textured surface. The views are just fantastic.. The Murchison River Gorge is unbelievable,you have got to see ...

I had no idea that the Kalbarri Coastal Cliffs even existed. I was tootling round looking at the town and came upon them. How beautiful are they! They are every bit as good at the Great Ocean Road! You drive in and out to each place or you can walk along the cliff tops. I like it how they do everything in WA regarding signage. They will tell you that if you fall off here you will very likely die and they leave the rest up to you. You walk along the cliff tops and deviate from the path in your thongs you may well die. Over East we are barred from going to places and seeing wonderful things in case we do something silly. Soooo many signs. In WA I think it has something to do with the Darwin principle - stupid people fall off! The views on this wonderful place are indescribable. The majestic Indian Ocean. The Rock formations, the little tiny bushes bravely flowering in the face of the wind and salt laden air. Oh this is just magic.

Before we arrived in Kalbarri, we drove down to the coastal park and stopped at three of the lookouts - Island Rock, Natural Bridge and Shell and Grandstand. It was whilst there, we were given a great surprise as apart from admiring the amazing coastline of rugged rocks, what else did we see? Whales! Humpbacks!The best 'performance' of the whales was near Shell House and Grandstand lookout, where one of them appeared to be having a great frolic in the water, giving a great exhibition of breaching out of the water. Managed to get a couple of shots using the telephoto lens on my camera.The next day, we drove out to the Gorges. Totally mind blowing! Photos simply don't give this region enough credit!It's a bit of a walk to Nature's Window but worth to view the Murchison River from there.The other places to visit are Z-Bend, Hawk's Head and Ross Graham Lookout, the last one a bit disappointing as the river was quite low and we didn't get to see the gum trees in the water as depicted on one of the photos there.You definitely need to stay at least two nights in Kalbarri to see all that this region has to offer.My one disappointment was I didn't think to organise a plane and fly over the region. Guess, we'll have to go back another time and do that!!

AMAZING scenery along the coast checking out the eroded cliffs along the way. Great spots to stop and have a look around - various lengths of walking trails. Great lookouts and platforms, LOTS of photo opportunities.

Amazing scenery. Very well laid out walks and look-outs. Picnic areas and toilets. Nature's Window should be on everyone's Bucket List.

$12 per car to visit the gorges and natures window is a bargain.Mainly tarmac road access to get there then last 12km the usual red dust track but the trip is definitely worth it for the views,photo opportunities and the wild life spotting.A few trails to follow if you are feeling fit but make sure you are prepared.Flies were not a problem while we were there thankfully but think they can be in summer time.Check out the views from the mens toilets!!!

We visited most of the lookouts starting at Natural Bridge and working or way north. Great cliffs, wildflowers, birds and even whales. This part of the National Park is free to access unlike the inland sections. Many of the lookouts are also wheelchair accessible but some would only be so with assistance.

An excellent lot of walks, made easy by a great surface on all tracks,moderate inclines with stunning views at the end to make the travel out there worthwhile, No entry fees apply and great roads with adequate parking at each site. The people who set these walks up should be given the job all over Australia. Don't miss these walks and pick some to do at sunset.
