Western Australia's warm climate, fertile soils and wide, open spaces make it perfect for wildflowers, which is why the state boasts up to 12,000 species scattered from top to bottom.
Better yet, most of the flowering blooms are found in some of the least explored regions of the state, so travellers following one of the many wildflower trails will discover the amazing colours and contrasts of nature, along with some of the best kept tourism secrets.
Quaint townships, friendly people, ancient Aboriginal rock paintings, towering forests, remote desert art and meandering rivers are all lying out there waiting to be explored.
Best of all, the huge diversity of climates across Western Australia mean there are flowering blossoms across the state for almost six months of the year, so pick a region, grab a map and your keys and find a piece of highway all to yourself where you can immerse in golden fields of flowers, or maybe even find a little gold for yourself along the way.
