Brockman National Park, National park in Pemberton region, Western Australia
Brockman National Park is a forest reserve in the Pemberton region of Western Australia covering approximately 52 hectares. The park consists mainly of eucalyptus woodlands with karri and marri trees, along with a varied understory of plants including swamp peppermint and karri hazel.
The Brockman Forest was set aside as a protected area in 1930 and later formed part of the Pemberton National Parks. In 1977 these areas passed to the state national park authority, and in 1986 the reserve was officially renamed Brockman National Park. Its name comes from the nearby Yeagarup Homestead, formerly Brockman Station.
The park takes its name from the nearby Yeagarup Homestead, formerly called Brockman Station. The Pemberton-Northcliffe road crosses the park for about 500 metres, and the surrounding karri and marri forest was logged and farmed by settlers before protection. No visitor facilities or interpretive displays stand in the park today.
The park is accessible via the Pemberton-Northcliffe road and entry is free. Visitors should note that facilities such as restrooms and picnic areas are not available within the grounds, so it is best to plan ahead.
The Warren River forms the northern boundary of the park and creates an important ecological edge within the forest ecosystem. The river supports specialized plant communities that depend on moisture and periodic flooding.
