About Lesueur National Park
Lesueur National Park is a 27,235-hectare protected area in the Shire of Dandaragan, Western Australia, about 26 kilometres southeast of Jurien Bay and 220 kilometres north of Perth. Gazetted in 1992, it protects one of the most diverse flora regions in Western Australia with over 900 plant species, including many endemics. The park features laterite mesas, Mt Lesueur and Mt Michaud, seasonal wildflower displays and walking trails through Kwongan heathland.

The park is accessed via unsealed Cockleshell Gully Road and offers marked walking trails, lookouts, picnic areas and interpretive signage. There are no shops or drinking water.
