Hawk's Head Lookout

Hawk's Head Lookout is a spectacular vantage point located within the Kalbarri National Park. It provides stunning views of the Kalbarri Gorges and Murchison River. Named in honour of a hawk shaped rock formation visible from the lookout, it will keep the family amused seeing who can spot the hawks head first! If you are lucky you may see the graceful Peregrine Falcon which hunts its prey along the cliffs. If you enjoy climbing, there are several excellent climbs either side of the lookout. Kalbarri National Park is one of the best known national parks in Australia with an exceptional display of wildflowers between August and October. There are several species that can only be found within the park, including the Kalbarri spider orchid. The views are breath-taking and with the Murchison River winding its way through the park, there are several beautiful swimming spots to enjoy. Located six and a half hours drive north of Perth and a short drive from Kalbarri, Hawk's Head Lookout is one of a number of lookouts through the Kalbarri National Park that are well worth a visit.
