The adventures are almost over, but today you’re in for one last treat. Depart early and set your GPS for Coalseam Conservation Park. This sheltered valley, with its mineral-rich soils, has created ideal conditions for Western Australia’s native everlastings, which bloom here in carpets so thickly knotted it’s nigh on impossible to see the ground beneath. As you drive through the valley, try not to leave your jaw on the floor: quite aside from their heavenly appearance and fragrance, their collective sway is quite hypnotic, as the breeze causes ripples through the blooms across and over the hills. Expect anything from the faintest blush of rose to a celebratory hot pink; from cream to bright yellow; and all shades in between. After you’ve completely used up your camera’s memory card (you’ll want to), hop back in the car and make your way back to Perth.
