This National Heritage listed National Park protects Western Australia's only mountain range and its unique flora and fauna, with a range of over 1500 recorded species of wildflowers and terrestrial orchids which flower in Spring.
Some rare mammals are common in the Range and birding is excellent.
The highest and most popular peak is Bluff Knoll (1,073 metres, 3-4 hour return). If you're lucky, you may even see snow on the summit!
The challenging wilderness walk to the summit of Toolbrunup Peak (1,052 metres, 4-5 hours return) rewards with magnificent 360 degree views.
In spring, Mt Trio (857 metres, 2 hours return) is a beautiful walk for wildflower enthusiasts.
Ellen Peak (1012 metres, 8 hours return), is a popular starting point for the Stirling Ridge Walk - the only alpine walk in Western Australia. You must register with the rangers for this three day experience.
Accommodation is available at Stirling Range Retreat opposite the Bluff Knoll turnoff. All budgets are considered in their range from hostel dorms to fully self-contained two bedroom chalets. Stirling Range Retreat has powered and unpowered camp and caravan sites.
Within the National Park, camping is permitted at Moingup Springs.
