Corrigin Wildflower Drive

Explore the Corrigin Wildflower Drive located five kilometres west of the townsite, boasting a vast array of beautiful and unusual wildflowers, shrubs and trees throughout the year. The self-drive trail is a four-kilometre one-way journey along a graded gravel track and it's suggested that visitors allow an hour or more to discover and appreciate the natural beauty of the reserve. Visitors are encouraged to get out of the car and look closer. It is asked that the car be parked to the left-hand side of the track so others can get by and please take care of where you step. Remember that the picking of wildflowers is prohibited by law throughout Western Australia. Late winter to early spring, or August to October, is the most popular time to visit, with a large number of orchids and flowers lining the trail. Hundreds of different plants are to be seen including feather flowers, leschenaultias, grevilleas, mallees, smoke bushes and tall eucalypts which give a fantastic range of colours. Spring flowering orchids include donkeys. cowslips, mantis, blue beard, spiders, shells, snails and greenhoods. Search for orchids and flowers in the topsoil and under leaf litter.
