Mount Kaputar National Park reaches 1,510 metres above sea level and provides some magnificent views from the summit as well as a number of lookouts and seating throughout the park.
The national park protects a variety of plant communities that include semi-arid woodlands, wet eucalypt forests and subalpine heaths. There are some wonderful examples of grass trees, some of which are a couple hundred years old.
The national park also provides a haven for a number of native and threatened animal species and is renowned for a unique pink slug that often appears after rain. Eastern Grey Kangaroo call the park home and can usually be seen especially if you are staying at the cabins or camping overnight.
