Kennedy Ranges, Western Australia

This week I am very happy to be guest posting over on Jo Castro's (Lifestyle Fifty) partner blog Zig-a-Zag. Jo's Zig-a-Zag blog specialises in Western Australian travel, and Jo invited me to do a guest post for her. 


I have travelled over a lot of Western Australia, so I chose to blog about a place I only visited for the first time a couple of years ago - the spectacular, and relatively easy to get to, Kennedy Ranges - located in Western Australia's Pilbara region. 





You can read below the opening paragraph - but please click on the link to visit me and Jo over at Zig-a-Zag and learn more about the Kennedy Ranges.  


One thing that appealed to us immediately about the Kennedy Ranges campground is its perfect location within a stone’s throw of the Ranges – and trust me there were a lot of stones! Nestled on the eastern side of the ranges in the shadow of towering red rock ramparts soaring one hundred metres above the surrounding Lyons River valley plains.  Located in Western Australia’s southern Pilbara region, our first visit was in 2015 and with all the travel we had done across Western Australia, I wondered why we had never been to this amazing place before.

and of course there are wildflowers.......... this is the Mulla Mulla which is very common in the Pilbara.




 Thank you so much for stopping by. I value your comments and look forward to hearing from you this week over on Zig-A-Zag. I will try to visit your blogs in return. Have a wonderful week.

My campsite report on camping in the Kennedy Ranges was published in September-October 2016 edition of the Australian travel magazine - On The Road.
