Description
Walyunga Pool is located at the end of Walyunga Road. The well drained area to the west of the pool is believed to be a Nyoongar camping site. Nyoongars say the Waugal took a wrong turn at this part of the river and had to squeeze through a crack in the range, before stopping and vomiting out the stones the Nyoongars use for tool making. Today the Walyunga Pool is a pleasant place to rest in the shade of the flooded gums and enjoy the peace of the river. The site is universally accessible.
