Visit the postcard pretty town of Bridgetown and spend some time relaxing on the grassy expanses of Blackwood River Park. This pleasant park land is just the place for a family picnic. Situated on the banks of the Blackwood River, the park has river access, walk trails, barbecues, a playground and toilets. The Blackwood River Park also has its place in local history as the site of the first police station which was built in 1862. The park is just south of the town. Bridgetown is a three hour drive south of Perth. Camping in Western Australia's natural areas is a special experience. Selected campgrounds from across the state are now bookable online for a trial period.
