Dryandra National Park

Dryandra
National PARK

Dryandra National Park, soon to be declared, is situated in the Shires of Cuballing and Narrogin and is a valuable nature conservation area featuring the largest remnant of original vegetation in the western Wheatbelt. 24 mammal, 98 bird and 41 reptile species are all known to call Dryandra home, including Western Australia’s state mammal emblem, the numbat (Myrmecobius fasciatus).
Fauna
Although the numbat is Dryandra's best known inhabitant, woylies, tammar wallabies, brushtail possums, tawny frogmouths, kangaroos and wallabies are regularly seen here. Birds seen in the area include the mound-building malleefowl.
Barna Mia
Experience the wonder of the woodland and its wildlife on a guided nocturnal tour of Barna Mia, a predator-proof animal sanctuary in the heart of Dryandra (bookings essential).
Flora
Dryandra is an especially scenic area with magnificent woodlands and spectacular wildflowers in winter and spring. The open eucalypt woodlands of white-barked wandoo and powderbark covered much of the Wheatbelt before it was cleared for farming. Thickets of rock sheoak and kwongan heath provide habitat for several of Dryandra's rare species.
Stay Awhile
Accommodation is available at Congelin Campground and the new Gnaala Mia Campground which have camp sites suitable for tents, camper trailers and caravans. Or you can choose to stay at a number of B&B's, hotels, motels and caravan parks in Cuballing, or Narrogin.
Getting there
Dryandra Woodland is less than two hours drive from Perth on sealed roads. Roads within the Woodland are unsealed, but accessible by all vehicles.
