Waroona - WA RVFT

Just 108 km south of Perth at the foot of the Darling Scarp, Waroona is a relaxed, RV-friendly base that makes it easy to restock, recharge and explore from sea to scarp—water to wilderness. Signed, shaded long-vehicle bays are a short stroll from country shops and the train station, and you’ll find RV essentials on hand, including a free dump point and potable water at the Waroona Town Oval, plus convenient 48-hour RV sites at Railside RV on Fouracre Street and the Town Oval hard-stand. Many travellers call in on their way to the South West and end up staying longer. Discover small-town hospitality at Railside Park and in local stores and the Waroona Visitor Centre, then venture further afield across a shire that stretches from coastal Preston Beach to Yalgorup National Park and the world-famous Lake Clifton thrombolites. Adventure comes easy here: launch a kayak or throw in a line at Drakesbrook Weir, cast from the shore at Preston Beach, paddle and fish at Lake Navarino (Waroona Dam), wander forest trails under towering trees, tee off for a relaxed round of golf at Preston Beach, and time your visit for wildflowers and black cockatoos overhead. After a day outside, settle into country pubs, bakeries and cafés for hearty classics and local produce; weekend markets and seasonal menus showcase the district’s farm-fresh flavour. Stay your way with holiday parks and cabins around Lake Navarino, in-town hotel and motel options, B&Bs and cosy cottages across the shire.
