We looked to cancel our booking in Bremer Bay after reading the previous reviews about the terrible road inside the park. We are glad we didn’t. For those as confused as we were when researching the holiday… the only paved road into the park is from Hopetoun. All the rest are gravel. We only drove part way on the gravel road from Bremer Bay into Fitzgerald, but the stretch we did was well maintained, though corrugated. As we only had a 2WD, we didn’t go too far, as the wildflowers were better on the roads outside! Even in mid September, the wildflowers were gorgeous. If you’re planning a trip just for the wildflowers, come in October.

Visited as a one day trip while driving from Esperance to Albany. We have a 2WD (RAV4 Toyota). Entered park via Hopetoun entrance and drove towards Hamersley inlet campground. This entire section was paved / bitumen roads, with no issues. Made numerous stops inc cave point (lookout and short walk), one of the beaches, and another viewpoint. From hamersley inlet to the eastern entrance/exit it is all corrugated roads with gravel on top. It’s about 50km and took us about an hour. We managed fine, and the roads were reasonable condition if you are used to driving on this type of road. Was a beautiful drive and well worth a visit if driving this way if have a car that is suitable. Beautiful nature scenery and flora

What a great national park. If the coastal scenery was not enough, the range and variety of native flora is just breathtaking. We visited both from the east in Hopetoun, staying four nights at the Four Mile campground and on a date trip to the west side of the park from Bremer Bay. Both highly recommended. There are lookouts, short and multi-day coastal walks, walks up to mountain lookouts, lakes, wildlife - mammals and birds, day use areas and simply wonderful flora. Access in the east is along a mostly sealed coastal road whilst within the park on the west, a bit of unsealed road driving is required. All worth it though. Would love to visit again in peak wildflower season.
