Everlastings Trail

Wildflower Country

Head to Mingenew and Three Springs for an abundance of unique wreath flowers, everlastings, hakea and more - check with local information centres.

Travelling north between Mingenew and Mullewa is a wildflower ‘must-do’ - the Coalseam Conservation Park. The park is THE hot spot for everlasting carpets with stunning white, pink and yellow everlastings as far as the eye can see.

In Mullewa explore the Everlasting Cultural Trails, rich with blooming flora and history. When entering, look along the highway for bush flowers and orange daviesia (the bacon and egg flower). East of Mullewa is Pindar where wreath flowers are common along the roadside and Canna where orchids and everlasting fields bloom. West of Mullewa is Tenindewa where yellow gentlemen’s buttons and everlastings grow wild.
