The Great Country Drive is a breathtaking drive looping around the scenic countryside surrounding Esperance. Discover picturesque lakes, rugged bushland, and local culinary delights along this popular drive trail. Stop at the stunning Lake Monjingup for a picnic lunch before exploring some of the nature reserve on foot. Bird watchers will be captivated by the large number of birds inhabiting the area.

Continue your drive through the countryside stopping at wineries, olive farms, the Yabbie farm and the Helms Arboretum before heading out to the spectacular Cape Le Grand National Park.

The Great Country Drive can take anywhere from 90 minutes to a full day depending how much time you take to explore the magnificent surroundings and attractions along the way.
