Situated in the scenic South West region, the Wellington District is a popular destination for outdoor adventure enthusiasts as well as casual travellers. Our keystone recreation precinct is the Wellington National Park. Attractions include the Wellington Dam and Mega Mural, Honeymoon Pool Campground, and our world class tracks and trails network encompassing the Bibbulmun Track, Munda Biddi Trail and over 90km of downhill mountain bike trails. Other Recreation Sites and Reserves within Wellington District include Lake Kepwari - South West WA’s largest inland water ski area, Stockton Lake, Logue Brook Dam, and the historic Leschenault Peninsula Conservation Park.

The District headquarters is located in Collie, where it has been since the 1920s, with a small satellite work centre in Harvey. The Wellington District’s 4 key programs are nature conservation, sustainable forest management, fire management, and parks and visitor services. Rangers work within the Parks and Visitor Services program to deliver secure and effective management of people and places, while collaborating and liaising with other programs to meet shared goals and achieve positive outcomes for the conservation estate.
