Avon Valley National Park

Avon Valley is a national park in Western Australia, 47 kilometres northeast of Perth.The area is an undulating plateau with the sides of the valley steeply sloping back to the river approximately 200 metres (660 ft) below.The area contains granite outcrops and a mix of soil types including loams, gravels and lateritic sands.[8] In the springtime the park is visited by wildflower enthusiasts to view the diverse range of flowers, including dryandras, donkey orchids and lechenaultias.[2] The bushranger Moondyne Joe used the area as a hide-out with his cave and corral situated within the park boundaries.
