National Anzac Center

Located near the Wheatbelt town of Hyden, is one of Australia’s most recognisable landforms.

Take a bush walk around the rock to see native flowers and birds. The rock also plays host to a popular music festival each year in spring.

Rising 15 metres from the ground and more than 100 metres long, the rock looks like a giant surf wave of multicoloured granite about to crash onto the bush below. It’s believed this amazing formation was more than 2,700 million years in the making.
Located 340 kilometres south-east of Perth, a four hour drive through picturesque farmland. You can drive yourself following the the Pathways to the Rock self drive trail.

Getting There

Flying is the popular way to get to Perth, and most tourists will arrive by plane at Perth International Airport.

The city is directly connected to Asia, the Middle East, New Zealand, Africa and Europe.

Those travelling from the Americas must transit through Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane.

You can drive to Perth from other parts of Australia, and it is a fascinating journey, but it is only for those with plenty of time.

Driving is a magnificent way to explore untouched parts of Western Australia and see things that would be impossible to view any other way.

People can also arrive in Perth on the Indian-Pacific train line.

The train connects Perth to Sydney and Adelaide.
From Sydney, the journey takes four days and three nights.

This rail journey is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and for those with the time, it is a unique way to arrive in Perth.

Cruise ships also dock in Perth – well, Fremantle, to be precise – and this is another way to enter the West Australian capital.

Accomodation Options

Accommodation options range from a winner of the best hotel in Australia to backpacker’s hostels, whole homes and caravan parks.

The last few years have seen the Perth hotel scene explode with new options such as the Ritz-Carlton and the QT, forcing well-established options such as the Hilton and the Hyatt to lift their game with significant refurbishments.

Mid-priced options such as the West Perth Holiday Inn and The Tribe have also significantly lifted hotel options at a lower price point.
