🌿 Come along on a spring Twilight Tour at Katter Kich!

Djilba is a beautiful time to get out on Country. The days are beginning to warm, there’s new growth across the landscape, and recent rain has left its mark across the granite and surrounding Country.

A Twilight Tour is about seeing more than the famous view — exploring the granite, taking in the landscape and hearing the stories and cultural knowledge that connect you to this place in a completely different way.

Here’s a little look at a recent afternoon out on tour with Michael, Dianne and Sarah, exploring Katter Kich and the surrounding landscape.

There’s more to Katter Kich than Wave Rock.

Djilba is here, and the Wheatbelt is beginning to bloom 💛

Across the landscape, paddocks are turning yellow as the canola comes into flower — one of those unmistakable signs that the seasons are changing.

Djilba is a time of transition, as the cooler, wetter days begin to give way to warmer weather and new growth starts appearing across Country.

It’s a beautiful time of year to be travelling through the Wheatbelt, with plenty more colour still to come as we move further into spring. 🌸

Have you ever noticed the wall running across Wave Rock?

If you’ve been following us for a while, you might remember our three-part series exploring the story behind the catchment wall.

The wall forms part of a catchment system designed to direct rainwater flowing off the rock into the local water supply.

These photos give you a closer look at the wall, as well as just how far it stretches across the rock.

Missed our series? Scroll back through our page (to March 2026) to discover more about the history of the catchment wall, how it works, its impacts, and two ways of knowing. 🌊🧱

More than just Wave Rock 🌿

There’s more to discover around Katter Kich than the rock itself.

Along the trails, you’ll find signs sharing Noongar names, knowledge and the traditional uses of plants found across this Country.

Condil/Kwel (Sheoak) is one of the plants you'll find on the Wave Rock Walk Circuit, an interpretive trail where you can learn more about the important relationship between people, plants and the land.

Take your time, explore the trails and look a little closer — there’s a lot of Country to discover beyond Wave Rock.

Why we love touring in Djilba 🌿

There's something special about exploring Katter Kich as Country begins to change.

The winter rains have filled the gnamma holes, new growth is appearing across the landscape, and the first signs of spring are starting to emerge. 🌱

But it's not just the changing landscape that makes Djilba special.

It's the cooler days that are perfect for walking.
It's the softer light of the late afternoon.
It's watching the sun settle across Country on a Twilight Tour.
And it's sharing these places, stories and moments with visitors from near and far.

Djilba is a season of new beginnings—and there's no better way to experience it than by slowing down and exploring Country.

There’s more to Wave Rock than Wave Rock. 🌿

Beyond the famous granite wave is a landscape full of stories, shelter, water and signs of life that can be easy to miss.

From kangaroo camps, a sheltered place where kangaroos regularly return to rest during the heat of the day, to old bush campfires, granite boulders and gnamma holes holding precious water after the rain — there is so much more to discover.

These are the kinds of places you might walk past without knowing their story. With Michael, a local Noongar guide, the landscape comes to life in a whole new way.

Come and discover more than just Wave Rock.

Welcome to Djilba 🌿

In Noongar culture, Djilba marks the beginning of spring - a season of renewal, changing weather, and the first signs of new life returning to Country.

After the winter rains, the landscape begins to transform. Gnamma holes fill with fresh water, the bush starts to awaken, and the first hints of spring begin to emerge.

Every season offers a different way to experience Katter Kich. As Djilba unfolds, take your time, look a little closer, and discover the beauty of Country as it changes.

We look forward to sharing the season with you

What does your guide get up to when he's not sharing stories at Katter Kich? 🐑
Often, he's out on the farm.
Moving sheep, building make-do fences with whatever's on hand, and tackling the jobs that come with life in the Wheatbelt.
No two days are the same. Whether it's on the farm or out on Country at Katter Kich, it's all part of the connection to this place. 🌾
Now for the real test… will the sheep cooperate?👀
