Cowcowing Lakes

Cowcowing Lakes, situated approximately 26 kilometers north of Wyalkatchem on the Wyalkatchem Koorda Road, is a vast saltpan spanning around 15,000 hectares. This seasonal lake undergoes dramatic transformations, filling with water during wetter periods and drying into a salt crust or dusty plain in summer. Surrounded by dense, salt-tolerant vegetation, the area offers a unique landscape for nature enthusiasts. While the lake is primarily a natural feature without facilities, it provides a serene environment for those seeking solitude and a connection with Western Australia's distinctive inland ecosystems.
