Wave Rock, Natural rock formation in Hyden, Western Australia.
The granite cliff formation extends 110 meters in length and rises 15 meters high, forming a curved shape that mimics an ocean wave.
The geological structure dates back approximately 2700 million years and underwent extensive erosion during the late Miocene period, shaping its current form.
The Ballardong Aboriginal people name this location Katter Kich and consider it a traditional meeting place for ceremonies and gatherings.
Visitors can explore three walking trails ranging from 650 to 1710 meters, with amenities including parking, restrooms, and picnic areas at the site.
A water collection system installed in 1928 above the rock directs rainfall into a reservoir that continues to supply the local community.
