Mount Frankland National Park

Mount Frankland National Park encompasses 31,000 hectares of tingle, jarrah, and karri forest, featuring a central granite peak reaching 411 meters in height.

Thomas Braidwood Wilson named Mount Frankland in 1829 to honor George Frankland, who held the position of Surveyor General of Tasmania at that time.

The Aboriginal name for Mount Frankland is Caldyanup, representing the enduring connection between the Traditional Owners and this significant natural landmark.

Visitors can access multiple walking trails leading to the summit, where a fire lookout tower provides monitoring services and panoramic views of surrounding forests.

The park contains rare tingle trees, which naturally occur only in this specific region between the national park and the Western Australian coast.
