A camping and picnic area on the Murray River

A camping and picnic area on the Murray River, longest permanent river in the jarrah forest and one of the few major rivers not dammed. In spring and summer the river flows slowly and is a favourite with canoeists; in winter its white water and fast current challenge more experienced canoeists and kayakers. Lane Poole Reserve, Dwellingup, Western Australia, Australia
