Though this Western Australia road trip can be done in as little as a week, this would involve big driving days and missing out on a lot of WA’s awesome sights.

To really get the most of driving from Perth to Broome, you should allow at least 2 weeks and anything up to 3 or even 4 weeks.

If you have your own car, you’re just about ready for the trip. But if you need to hire one, then the best and most affordable option is to get one through Rental Cars .

If you’re more of a campervan kind of person though, check out Spaceships Rentals , who have great vans for good prices.

You will also want to consider purchasing a park pass for the National parks in Western Australia as you will pass in or near the following:

• Nambung National Park
• Drover’s Cave National Park
• Francois Peron National Park
• Cape Range National Park
• Karijini National Park

More information on purchasing a park pass can be found here .

Pro Tip: For access to the different national parks in Western Australia, you should buy the Holiday Pass (5 days for $25, 14 days for $40 or 4 weeks for $60) or the Annual All Parks Pass which is valid for 12 months and only costs $120.

If you’ve ever done a road trip in Australia, you would have noticed that drives tend to be quite long. This is particularly true in Western Australia.

If you have more time, I recommend following my Perth to Exmouth road trip itinerary first and then join in here from day 9 onwards.

You could also spread out some of the Perth to Exmouth drive. If you take it slow through Exmouth, Karijini and Eighty Mile Beach, your road trip could easily extend to over a month.

Let’s begin our epic road trip from Perth to Broome in Western Australia.  

Day 1: Perth to Geraldton

• Distance: 415 km
• Time: 4.5 – 5 hours

While the distance may be relatively short compared to the others on this road trip, there is plenty to see between Perth and Jurien Bay that could easily take you a few days.

Expect heavy traffic during winter public holidays or schools holidays and try to leave as early as possible to get the most out of your day.

The sealed roads are fast though and consist of mainly flat landscapes.

After exploring all the best Perth attractions and activities, it’s time to hit the road!

With nine walk trails, over 400 caves and home to western grey kangaroos, Yanchep is an easy first stop on your first day of driving.

Only 40 minutes north of Perth, you can go for a stroll or even spend the day here taking in the coastal woodlands, wildlife and limestone caves.

Yanchep National Park is also home to western grey kangaroos which can be seen early and late in the day. The park has nine walk trails suitable for any ages, interests and fitness abilities as well as over 400 caves to enjoy.

For those wanting to extend their Perth to Broome drive, this is also a great spot to spend a night.

The Pinnacles in Nambung National Park is often said to resemble walking on the moon or another planet. It’s s truly unique landscape for Western Australia.

The Pinnacles have incredible natural limestone structures that were formed approximately 25,000 to 30,000 years ago after the sea receded and left deposits of seashells.

Over time, the pillars have been exposed to the elements as coastal winds removed the surrounding sand.

Nambung National Park is a super cool place to see in Western Australia!

Walk along an easy 1.5-kilometre trail around the shores to see an abundance of thrombolites in the lake.

These rock-like structures are built by micro-organisms too small for the human eye to see. The thrombolite-building micro-organisms of Lake Thetis resemble the earliest forms of life on Earth!

Spend the late afternoon and evening enjoying the tranquillity of Jurien Bay along the coast at any of the beaches. If you’ve got your snorkelling gear, head towards the old wooden jetty and check out some of the coral around there.

You can also rent stand up paddleboards and enjoy some paddling if time permits.

Enjoy some delicious seafood for dinner before continuing your journey to Geraldton.

You’ll start noticing some leaning trees as you make your way closer to Geraldton.

The most photographed leaning tree is this River Gum that leans due to constant strong southerly winds.

For your first overnight stay, we recommend booking your accommodation ahead of time so you don’t have to spend hours driving around finding a place to stay.

Check out the options on Booking.com .

If you end up wrapping up quite late and don’t want to drive too much further, consider staying in Jurien Bay overnight and continue to Geraldton early in the morning.

Day 2: Geraldton to Kalbarri

• Distance:  155 km
• Time:  2 hours

Follow along the flat and fast sealed road from Geraldton to Kalbarri.

Enjoy some breakfast in town and go for a swim at the beach before continuing north towards your next stop.

If you have an extra day or two to spare, you can make a trip to the Abrolhos Islands which are filled with wonderful marine life, go on a fishing charter or take a scenic flight out to the islands.

Continue north to Hutt Lagoon, one of WA’s iconic pink lakes.

Drive along Port Gregory Road and park your car to walk to the edge of the water.

Explore the World Heritage listed Coral Coast and check out the dramatic coastal cliffs at Red Bluff which overs incredible views over the ocean and is a good spot for whale watching.

Don’t miss Island Rock and Natural Bridge for some epic sunset views and photos. Go for a swim at Pot Alley or bring your snorkelling gear for some fun at Blue Holes.

Kalbarri National Park offers many different hiking options of varying classes that are suitable for any level.

You can enjoy gorge views from the picnic area and follow a short path to Hawks Head which overlooks the Murchison River. Or take the Z Bend Lookout trail which overlooks the river.

The Loop trail to Nature’s Window is only 800m and has views of the Murchison Riber’s switchback course from a natural rock arch that frames the upstream view. This is one of the more popular hikes in Kalbarri National Park.

You can also continue the trail along an 8km loop for those who want to get moving.

Day 4: Kalbarri to Shark Bay

• Distance : 374km
• Time:  4 hours

The road from Kalbarri National Park to Shark Bay doesn’t have too many great views but the road is sealed, accessible and easy to drive.

The most diverse and abundant examples of living marine stromatolites (or ‘living fossils’) in the world are found right here in Western Australia and can be seen on this portion of your Perth to Broome drive.

The  stromatolites  can be viewed from the boardwalk which extends out in the ocean for everyone to enjoy.

Note that boating, swimming, diving and snorkelling are not permitted over stromatolites or within 300m of the shore.

Stretching over 70km and up to 10 metres deep are billions of tiny shells along aptly named Shell Beach.

This is one of the only places on earth where shells replace beach sand and is a must-visit on your way into Shark Bay.

The ocean here is hypersaline so it is very salty, making it easy to float – just don’t get any in your eyes!

READ MORE: Lap the whole state with this epic Western Australia road trip !

Denham is your first stop in exploring the Shark Bay World Heritage Area and is a friendly coastal town of approximately 1,000 residents.

The town provides many accommodation options, has safe swimming beaches, restaurants and a golf course.

Be sure to stock up on supplies and fuel before moving on tomorrow!

Francois Peron National Park is one of Western Australia’s best-hidden gems but requires a high-clearance 4WD and experience driving.

There aren’t any sealed roads and you should be prepared to get bogged and know how to get out.

Known for its contrasting red cliffs, white beaches and blue waters, the park offers great opportunities for canoeing, kayaking, swimming, snorkelling, fishing and bushwalking.

There is a small campground with gas BBQs and toilets located at Big Lagoon. Be sure to read all signs carefully as some beaches aren’t safe to swim in due to strong currents.

No bookings are taken for camping and sites are available on a first-come-first-served basis.

For those without a 4WD, you can access Little Lagoon – a natural swimming pool full of fish – and Peron Homestead which has a self-guided station walk trail, picnic facilities and a hot tub.

Day 6: Shark Bay to Coral Bay

• Distance : 560 km
• Time:  5.5 hours

One of the more famous places to visit on any Perth to Broome drive, just 30 minutes from Denham, is Monkey Mia which is famous for its wild dolphin experience.

Monkey Mia, part of the World Heritage-listed Shark Bay, is surrounded by rusty red sand dunes, white sandy beaches and its waters are full of marine life.

Here, you might see dugongs, sharks, rays, turtles and loads of other fish outside of the dolphins.

A day permit of $15 per adult applies for Monkey Mia.

Get out of the car and give your legs are break when you get to Carnarvon.

This Western Australian town is known for its fruit farms, making it a delicious stop for local produce.

Walk along the One Mile Jetty which is perfect for visiting in the late afternoon for sunset.

You can also head to the Carnarvon Space and Technology Museum that was built in 1964 to support NASA’s Gemini, Apollo and Skylab programs.

Stay overnight in Coral Bay before continuing on tomorrow towards Exmouth and the Ningaloo Reef.

If you arrive in time for sunset, spend this on the beach. Otherwise, you can head to your accommodation in the evening which should be booked in advance to avoid disappointment.

The  Ningaloo Coral Bay – Bayview  is a fantastic spot to sleep.

Budget-conscious? You can stay at a free rest stop just outside of Coral Bay along the road. There are no facilities here so you’ll need to be fully equipped.

Day 7: Coral Bay to Exmouth

• Distance:  155 km
• Time:  2 hours

Spend the morning in Coral Bay before continuing along the main sealed road all the way to Exmouth.

There isn’t much to see along the way and the road is mostly flat with dry desert views.

The beach at Coral Bay is calm, crystal clear and is perfect for snorkelling and diving.

Walk to the right of Coral Bay’s beach to Skeleton Bay, a reef shark nursery where you can see some shark pups!

You can also go quad biking on the sand dunes, go out on diving, fishing or boat routes in Coral Bay.

We’d recommend you book a Coral Bay reef tour on a glass-bottom boat to allow you to see the beauty of the reef without taking too much time out of your Western Australia drive itinerary.

Your first stop is the  Ningaloo Visitor Centre  where you can pick up all the information and maps you need for Cape Range National Park and for insight on weather and local’s tips on where to swim at that current time.

Here, you can also learn about whale sharks and other marine life in the area and how conservation works in Ningaloo Reef.

If you’ve got a 4WD, you can step up the excitement of the road trip and drive along the Town Beach and find your own private spot to swim.

Otherwise, just head down for a quick dip and enjoy the ocean views.

Drive to the lighthouse for sweeping views over Exmouth and the ocean. If you have binoculars, be sure to bring it along to spot whales breaching in the distance.

Head up in the late afternoon to take in the serenity and enjoy watching the sunset. This is also one of the best stargazing spots you’ll ever find!

Day 8: Cape Range National Park

• Distance:  60 km
• Time:  1 hour

As you are halfway through your drive from Perth to Broome, you’re in for some real treats! Drive from Exmouth into Cape Range National Park along the sealed access road.

Boasting 50 km of pristine beaches, breathtaking deep canyons and rugged limestone ranges, Cape Range National Park is absolutely spectacular and warrants as many days as you have available to fully enjoy it.

One of the highlights of your Perth to Broome road trip is the opportunity to swim with whale sharks. Be sure to  book a tour   early  to reserve your place.

Swimming with whale sharks in the Ningaloo Reef is very controlled and there are loads of rules around it to ensure that it doesn’t negatively impact whale sharks.

Head to Turquoise Bay, Oyster Stacks and Sandy Bay for epic snorkelling alongside turtles, stingrays, reef sharks and plenty of other fish and coral.

You can also book this tour to swim with massive manta rays !

If you’re not keen on getting in the water, you can enjoy the 3 km return trail through Mandu Mandu Gorge, the 1.5 km Yardie Gorge Trail, the 3.5 km Charles Knife Edge Walk or some longer trails such Shothole Canyon’s 24.5 km trail.

As summer gets as hot as 50 degrees Celcius (122 degrees Fahrenheit), the walks and hikes through the park should only be done between April and September when temperatures are cooler.

This is generally the best time to make this road trip anyway.

Day 9: Exmouth to Karijini

• Distance: 658 km
• Time: 8 hours

After a few days on the coast, your Perth to Broome road trip is going to head inland towards Karijini National Park, one of Australia’s more underrated national parks.

Unfortunately, there’s not much to see between Exmouth and Karijini so today is mostly a big day of driving. Be prepared with snacks, water and make all the fuel stops you need.

Welcome to the Pilbara!

Before heading into Karijini, stop by Tom Price, the highest town in Western Australia at 747 metres above sea level.

Pop into the visitor centre to get maps of Karijini National Park and into the supermarket for anything you’ll need to cover you for Karijini.

This is your last major pit stop before you head into the park.

Since you won’t really have any time to explore the national park on your first day, why not score free accommodation by camping near Hamersley Gorge.

Just past the turnoff to the gorge is an open area outside of the national park where you are allowed to camp.

Enjoy your night under the stars and get plenty of rest for tomorrow.

Day 10: Karijini National Park

Welcome to Karijini National Park, Western Australia’s second-largest national park, encompassing some 627,441 ha.

You are about to embark on some incredible hikes through spectacular, rugged scenery with ancient geological formations.

If you’re travelling through Karijini during the dry season (April to October which generally the best time to visit), it’s going to be fairly hot.

You should be prepared with good hiking shoes or sandals, protective weather gear, swimwear and water for your hikes.

The roads in the park are mostly unsealed though 2WD vehicles will still be able to drive through fine.

The roads are mostly red dirt so if you’re bringing your own car, beware that this stuff is almost impossible to get out!

You’ll start at the westernmost point of the national park and head to Hamersley Gorge.

Here, you can enjoy a beautiful morning descending into a gorge with dramatic colours, textures and reflections.

In the middle of the national park, you’ll find a cluster of incredible gorges and waterfalls where you could easily spend a few days exploring.

To break these up and to ensure you have sufficient energy for hiking and to enjoy the gorges, it’s best to group a couple of gorges together, stay overnight and then tackle the others the next day.

These two gorges are class 5 trails which means they are the most difficult in the park. Expect to find steep and slippery sections.

If these hikes are inaccessible to you, you can head to the Joffre and Knox lookouts and enjoy the views from above.

Karijini Eco Retreat offers stay-in or campsite options but needs to be booked ahead of time . There are full facilities here as well as a restaurant.

Day 11: Karijini

Wake up to a morning view of Western Australia’s abundance of wildflowers in bloom and prepare yourself for another epic day of exploring gorges.

An easy 30-minute return hike will take you to some breathtaking views of Hancock Gorge.

From here, you can continue along to Oxer Lookout which consists or a narrow trail with loose rocks.

After enjoying your views from above, head to Weano Gorge and take on the shorter Upper and Lower Weano trails.

From the Lower Weano trail, you can continue on to Handrail Pool at the peak of the day when it’s hottest. The Gorge is refreshing and cool so this is the best time to go for a lovely dip.

Take on Hancock Gorge after this and walk all the way downstream to Kermits Pool where you’ll find a small turquoise pool with some spots to jump in.

This hike is also a class 5 hike and is one of the most difficult in the park.

In the late afternoon, pop into the Karijini Visitor Centre to immerse yourself further in the park.

The Visitor Centre provides plenty of fascinating information about the gorges, the stories behind them, the surrounding Pilbara area and the geology on the site.

Wifi, public toilet and shower facilities are also available here.

Your overnight pit stop will be at Dales Camping Area and needs to be booked well in advance.

Campsites are in very high demand from June to September and the only other campsite is back at the Karijini Eco Retreat.

Day 12: Karijini National Park

Spend your last full day of in Karijini National Park in Dales Gorge before continuing your Perth to Broome drive.

There are a few different trail options through Dales Gorge that you could do all in a day. Start with the 2km Gorge Rim trail and enjoy the wonderful views into Dales Gorge.

Fortescue Falls is a stunning waterfall that can’t be missed. You can enjoy a few hours here laying in the sun, having a picnic and revelling in the tranquillity of the surrounding nature.

From Fortescue Falls, continue the hike onwards to Fern Pool, another beautiful little swimming hole.

From the car park, descend down a steep slope to the bottom of the gorge before you reach the fern-framed pool that is another great spot to enjoy for a couple of hours.

Once you’ve finished exploring Dales Gorge, you can either spend the night in the camping area otherwise exit the park and stay at Auski Tourist Village which is a short drive away.

There are both campsites and accommodation options here.  

You could easily extend your time in Karijini to a week and take your time exploring the gorges individually. This would also allow you to get plenty of rest between big hikes and spend more time in the swimming holes.

If you do have the time, you could tack on Mount Bruce which is the second-tallest peak in WA. Here you’ll find three trail options, the longest being to Mount Bruce Summit which is a 9km, 6-hour return hike.

Day 13: Karijini to Eighty Mile Beach

• Distance: 580 km
• Time: 6.5 hours

Enjoy your last morning in Karijini and perhaps making any last stops in any gorges you missed before continuing on your road trip.

After this, you’re in for another big drive out of the National Park and back towards the coast to Port Hedland.

While Port Hedland isn’t exactly the top of any must-see destinations, this mining town does have a couple of things in town to give you a chance to stretch your legs.

You can head to Pretty Pool Park for a quick swim or go to Dalgety House Museum which showcases a little bit about the local history of the town.

This is also a good opportunity to top up on fuel and any supplies you might need.

After that big drive, you’ll stop and spend the rest of the day and night here at Eighty Mile Beach.

Famous for its fishing and shell collecting, Eighty Mile Beach is given its name thanks to the super long stretch of coast that seemingly goes on forever.

If you have a 4WD you can drive along the beach and find a nice spot to spend the day and enjoy an epic sunset on the beach.

Eighty Mile Beach Caravan Park offers powered and unpowered campsites as well as self-contained cabins to stay in.

Day 14: Eighty Mile Beach to Broome

• Distance: 380 km
• Time: 4 hours

Wake up to a beautiful sunrise on the beach and prepare yourself for the final leg of your Perth to Broome drive itinerary.

Turn left from the main road towards Port Smith Caravan Park and drive along the 23 km well-maintained dirt road to one of WA’s best-kept secrets.

Pop in to go fishing or for a refreshing dip to break up your drive.

Continue along the National Highway all the way to your final destination, Broome!

Broome is the famous beach resort town in Western Australia’s Kimberley region. Known for its dramatic sunsets, camel rides and incredible beaches, you will plenty to do here.

The question is, how much time can you spend here?

Make a brief stop in the visitor centre to get information on tides, weather updates and a map for the different beaches around town.

Reward yourself with a relaxing afternoon at Cable Beach and spend the rest of the day fishing or swimming.

Cable Beach is also a nude beach though most of the time you’ll only find the older folks stripping down and taking advantage of this liberty.

If you’ve booked a camel ride, you’ll do this on the beach in the late afternoon or at sunset.

If you aren’t doing this, stay around for a spectacular sunset before heading to your accommodation for the night.

That wraps up your incredible Perth to Broome road trip itinerary! This itinerary can be modified to suit any length of time you have but we definitely recommend extending it out if you have time available.

Western Australia is huge and unless you are on a time crunch, there are plenty of other side trips you can take on this road trip.

Don’t forget to have plenty of water, supplies and tools handy in the car as driving in remote Western Australia will often leave you out of range and a flat tyre is a nightmare.

Drive safe and let us know if you’re planning this road trip soon and what you’re looking forward to most!

Are there any good companies that people would recommend that we could rent a SUV or motorhome and drive one way up to Broome? (Versus having to drive back?)

This is such a great, comprehensive guide. Really helpful when planning my own WA trip, thank you 🙂

You are welcome. So glad you found our article helpful. We hope you had a great time in Broome. 🙂

This trip looks amazing also all the photos looks awesome. I enjoyed alot your blog

What is the best route coming home in about the same time length of 14 days? 🙂

West Coast is the best! But I read the part about the campervan and I don’t think that spaceships campervans operate in western Australia though. Loads of other options though! (I.e. home on the road, travellers Autobarn , share bus who help find a group to rent with etc)

Yes it is Jade. West is best. I say this to Jarryd all the time. I am from the west. Thank you for this. Amanda is from the west too, but we both haven’t been back for a while. We will change that. Thanks for letting us know. 🙂

Distance between Broome and Kalgoorlie

Driving non-stop from broome to kalgoorlie.

How far is Kalgoorlie from Broome? Here's the quick answer if you have friends taking shifts as driver so that you can make the entire trip by car without stopping.

Nonstop drive: 1,356 miles or 2182 km

Driving time: 23 hours, 25 minutes

This is a really long drive, so it's not very realistic to drive nonstop. To get a better idea of how long this road trip would actually take, scroll down to calculate how many hours it would be if you drive with stops .

Flying non-stop from Broome to Kalgoorlie

Now let's assume you have a private jet and you can fly in the fastest possible straight line between Broome, Western Australia and Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. Because of the curvature of the Earth, the shortest distance is actually the "great circle" distance, or "as the crow flies" which is calculated using an iterative Vincenty formula. For a long distance, this appears as a curve on the map, and this is often the route that commercial airlines will take so it's a good estimate of the frequent flyer miles you'll accumulate as well.

Flight distance: 881 miles or 1419 km

Flight time: 2 hours, 16 minutes

The straight line flight distance is 475 miles less than driving on roads, which means the driving distance is roughly 1.5x of the flight distance.

Your plane flies much faster than a car, so the flight time is about 1/10th of the time it would take to drive.

This is a medium length flight, so unless you have a nice private jet, you might be booking a commercial flight. In that case, your travel time would really need to include how many minutes to get to your local airport, wait for security, board and taxi on the runway, land at the other airport, and get to your destination. Scroll down to see a more realistic calculation that takes into account all these factors to get a more accurate estimate of your actual flight time .

Broome to Kalgoorlie road trip

Realistically, you're not going to want to drive without stopping all the way from Broome to Kalgoorlie, especially if you're the main driver. So let's say you're actually planning a road trip to Kalgoorlie, and you need to stop along the way to rest. Plus if it's a real road trip, you might want to check out interesting stops along the way, eat at great restaurants, and find a hotel to stay overnight. That's what Trippy is perfect for, helping you figure out travel plans in detail.

Based on the length of this trip, we think you could spread out this fun road trip over a number of days.

Road trip: 3 days of driving

With the full itinerary planned out, we can estimate your total travel time for this trip.

Travel time: 25 hours on the road with 2 overnights

Start in Broome .

Drive for about 2.5 hours , then stop in Eighty Mile Beach and stay for about 1 hour. Next, drive for another 3.5 hours then stop in Port Hedland . Stay overnight. The next day, drive for about 5 hours , then stop in Newman and stay for about 1 hour. Next, drive for another 9 hours then stop in Leinster . Stay overnight. The next day, drive for about 1.5 hours , then stop in Leonora and stay for about 1 hour. Finally, drive for about 2.5 hours and arrive in Kalgoorlie .

Broome to Kalgoorlie airports and flights

In the quick calculation above, we assumed you had a private plane and just wanted to know the time in the air from city to city. But for most of us, we're going to be flying on a commercial airline (whether it's first class or coach). So that means we really need to account for all the extra travel time getting to the airport, waiting for our flight, and making it to the destination.

To give you a better estimate of real-life travel, we've put together a flight itinerary with actual airports. Eventually you'll be able to customize this plan, choosing your own airports and flights. But for now, here's an example we've selected to give you an idea of how traveling might work between airports.

Departure airport: Broome International Airport (BME)

Arrival airport: Kalgoorlie-Boulder Airport (KGI)

With the airports selected, we can estimate the travel time to and from the airport, based on how far the airport is from downtown.

Getting to the airport: 2 minutes

Getting to your destination: 8 minutes

Now finally, let's look at an example flight from BME to KGI and figure out how long it would take to fly including take-off and landing, and time to taxi on the runway.

Commercial flight time: 2 hours, 16 minutes

So now we can finally get an idea of the total travel time from Broome to Kalgoorlie including time spent getting to/from the airports, an estimated wait time of 2 hours at the airport for TSA security lines and waiting at the gate, and the actual flight itself.

Total travel time: 4 hours

Plan a trip to Kalgoorlie

Trippy has a ton of information that can help you plan your trip to Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. Start by reading the Trippy page on where to stay in Kalgoorlie . Click the button below to explore Kalgoorlie in detail.

How far is it the other way?

The distance is the same either way if you're flying a straight line (or driving the same roads back and forth). But for a real trip, there can be plenty of differences so go ahead and check the reverse directions to get the distance from Kalgoorlie to Broome , or go to the main page to calculate the distance between cities .

Perth to Kalgoorlie Road Trip

In a state of stunning beaches, spectacular landscapes, and excellent national parks, Kalgoorlie offers something a little different. This unique city is the largest in the Outback and has a rich history dating back to the gold rush of the 1890s. Mining continues to play a prominent part in present-day Kalgoorlie and is one of the main reasons to visit this remote outpost. Kalgoorlie is an excellent location for anyone exploring the Outback and keen to discover more about Western Australia’s vast mining industry.

A road trip to this historic city also offers a different experience from other road trips in Western Australia. Following the original route of the Goldfields Water Pipeline (now known as the Golden Pipeline Heritage Trail), you’ll pass through a range of landscapes, charming country towns, and several stunning national parks. It’s a journey that can be completed in as little as 6 hours, making it ideal for either a long weekend adventure or as part of longer trip into the Outback.

In this guide, we’ll cover the best time to visit, the best route to take, and the best things to see along the way. So read on to find out everything you need to know about the perfect Perth to Kalgoorlie road trip.

The Best Road Trip Route Between Perth and Kalgoorlie

A road trip route isn’t much more straightforward than the one between Perth and Kalgoorlie. The route both begins and ends on the Great Eastern Highway. You’ll first join the road in Perth’s eastern suburbs and then follow it for the full 594 km to Kalgoorlie. The road is asphalted the entire way, meaning a regular 2WD vehicle can easily make the journey. Along the way, there are several potential detours and attractions off the main road, which may require a 4WD during wetter weather.

The route takes you from the city limits of Perth, through the Perth Hills, and into the Wheatbelt. As you travel through the Wheatbelt, you’ll pass through countless agricultural communities and attractive small towns. Eventually, you’ll arrive at Goldfields-Esperance, the largest of Western Australia’s nine regions. The route then progresses through a series of National Parks and Conservation Areas before you reach Coolgardie and head into the final stretch to  Kalgoorlie.

If you drive without stopping, the 594 km journey should take between 6 and 7 hours. However, there are plenty of potential stops along the way, and we’d suggest spreading the trip out over a few days. 

Perth to Kalgoorlie Itinerary

We’ve split the 594 km journey from Perth to Kalgoorlie over three days for this itinerary. This is the perfect amount of time to allow you to explore the area and take in the sights and scenery without spending too much time on the road each day. As the distances involved aren’t vast, you can shorten or extend the itinerary to fit in with amount of time you have available. 

Day 1 - Perth to Northam

From Perth, you’ll head 34 km east on the Great Eastern Highway to Mundaring in the Perth Hills. It’s only a short drive to this famous town, and it’s well worth stopping. The town marks the beginning of the renowned water pipeline that supplied water to the Kalgoorlie goldfields in the early part of the twentieth century. The Mundaring Weir, built in 1903, is the starting point of this pipeline, and there’s an excellent attached museum, which provides a comprehensive history of the project. 

From Mundaring, you continue east on the Great Eastern Highway. There are several potential stops and detours that you can take at this point. The first is up to Lake Leschenaultia, where you can swim, kayak, or paddleboard on this beautiful lake. You can’t go far wrong if it’s a hot sunny day. 

Returning to the Great Eastern Highway, the route continues a further 50 km to Northam, the destination for the first overnight stay. On the way, you’ll pass the first exhibits of the PUBLIC Silo Trail that extends from Northam to Albany. The trail features a series of spectacular murals painted on the side of the region’s vast Grain Silos. 

An alternative option is the detour via York. This route involves turning off the Great Eastern Highway onto the Great Southern Highway. This route takes you to York, the oldest inland town in Western Australia. The town is full of historic buildings and the excellent York Motor Museum. From York, it’s a relatively short 36 km up to Northam for your overnight stay.

Day 2 - Northam to Southern Cross

The second day begins in Northam, and if you’ve got the time and budget, why not consider a hot-air balloon ride across the Avon Valley at sunrise? It’s a beautiful and exhilarating start to the day. Once you’re ready to hit the road, you’ll once again be heading east on the Great Eastern Highway. 

As you head east, you’ll pass through several small towns, including Malabaine, Grass Valley, and Meenar. Shortly before you reach the town of Meckering, you’ll pass the Meckering Earthquake faultline. This crack in the earth was caused by an earthquake in 1968, and a sign and information board mark the location. It’s worth a few minutes of your time as you pass by.

Shortly after the faultline, there’s a turn-off for the Bulgin Rock Reserve, which is a great hiking and picnic spot. Alternatively, if you carry on to Meckering, you can stop at the Big Camera, a museum dedicated to photography and home to countless cameras from bygone eras. While you can stop in Meckering for lunch, we’d suggest continuing a little further on to Cunderdin. Not only does it have a better range of places to eat but there are some good attractions in town, including the Cunderin Museum. 

From Cunderdin, we continue the journey east through the Wheatbelt to Merredin. The 108 km drive shouldn’t take you longer than 1 hour and 15 minutes to complete. As you arrive at Merredin, you’ll see the beautifully painted silos, which form the second part of the PUBLIC Silo Trail. Merredin has many amenities, including a bakery and a supermarket, so stock up here if you need provisions. It also has two excellent museums: Merredin Railway Museum and Merredin Military Museum. If you’ve got the time, both are worth checking out.   

The final part of the day is spent traveling the remaining 108 km to Southern Cross, the destination for our second overnight stay. The journey should only take an hour and 15 minutes, and there’s a good range of accommodation options in town. There’s also a decent tavern for some refreshments after a long day on the road. 

Day 3 - Southern Cross to Kalgoorlie

Our final day begins in Southern Cross, and as you leave town, you leave the Wheatbelt region and enter the Goldfields-Esperance region. This transition is also reflected in the landscape and the number of towns, which dwindles as you continue east. Towns along the Great Eastern Highway are replaced by national parks and nature reserves. 

The first reserve on the way is Yellowdine Nature Reserve, while Boorabbin National Park closely follows. The latter is our preferred destination and a great place to stop for bushwalking. Karalee Rocks is located between the two parks, and it’s another stop on the Golden Pipeline Heritage Trail. There are large granite outcrops here and a natural reservoir, which is safe for swimming.  

Boorabbin National Park eventually merges into Goldfields Woodland National Park, which is another fine bushwalking location. Beyond the national parks, you’ll reach the small and historic town of Coolgardie. It’s an excellent spot to grab some lunch, and you should also take in the views of Lindsay Pit, which will give you a taste of what to expect in Kalgoorlie. 

The final leg of the road trip from Coolgardie to Kalgoorlie is a short 38 km drive. You should be able to complete the journey in 30 minutes, and that’s it; you’ve made it to your final destination of Kalgoorlie!

Vision-impaired residents, disability advocates call for action over accessibility in WA

Like many people in Kalgoorlie-Boulder, Gary Paul wears fluorescent clothing most days.

But there are still too many moments when he feels invisible.

After several close calls, the vision-impaired senior said he routinely approached some of the Goldfields city's busiest pedestrian crossings with trepidation.

"You press the button, go across the road, and people drive straight through the traffic light," Mr Paul said.

"One [vision-impaired] fella had his cane knocked out of his hand one time. I've been walking across and near on been run over."

But he said his list of concerns went beyond pedestrian crossings.

Mr Paul said overhanging trees and potholes had rendered numerous Kalgoorlie footpaths unsafe for the vision-impaired, as well as "bits of steel" that protruded over street gutters.

"They blend in beautifully with the concrete, and the edges are really hard to see," he said.

Kalgoorlie-Boulder Mayor Glenn Wilson said creating an accessible city was a key priority and work was being done to improve the quality of footpaths.

"These works include the realignment of ramps and tactile pavers to ensure those with visual impairment or using mobility aids can confidently move around our city," he said.

"The city actions reports of hazards on public footpaths or roads."

But from the state's remote heart to the middle of Perth, accessibility problems – and a lack of awareness among the general public – remain a burden for many within the vision-impaired community.

Mental health impacted

Advocacy WA chief executive Stu Schonell was recently left unimpressed with a busy Perth intersection.

"There was no way a vision-impaired person could walk across," he said.

"There was no buzzer, there was a little sign on there saying for pedestrians to give way and to wait until the light turned green."

He also said there was a growing problem with tactile indicators at crossings becoming "so old they're lifting and becoming trip hazards".

He said responsibility for addressing the issues ultimately fell on the state government to work with councils.

"Each shire really needs to have a full accessibility assessment done to have a look at footpaths and roads and traffic lights and crosswalks, and make sure that they actually do meet current Australian standards," he said.

Mr Schonell said there was still a lack of true awareness about disabilities nationwide.

"You'd think by now we'd have it right, but we don't," he said.

"When parts of the environment mean that you're unable to go out and do things and be social, that has a has a real impact on your mental health."

Under the Disability Services Act, local and state authorities are required to develop and implement a Disability Access and Inclusion Plan.

Local governments are required to report on their implementation annually.

Disability Services Minister Don Punch said legislation was being developed to replace the Act and improve the efficacy of the plans.

"All Western Australians have a responsibility in creating the type of community we all want to be part of and proud of," he said.

"My door is always open to Advocacy WA regarding concerns for our disability community."

Word of advice

Debbie Van Luxemborg was eight years old when she was diagnosed with a degenerative eye condition.

Now 73, the Kalgoorlie resident and guide dog user works closely with other vision-impaired members of her community.

She helped create the Visually Impaired Persons (VIP) group, a Kalgoorlie-based support network, and regularly imparts the same piece of advice to new members.

"I've told all my people that I come across who are visually impaired, the first thing you need to know is a sighted person does not know what you are going through," she said.

Mr Paul said some members of the group had lost their vision "basically overnight".

"It's traumatic enough to go blind," he said.

"Let alone try and find your way around the place, putting up with hazards."
