Northam

Tucked along the Avon River in Western Australia’s Wheatbelt, Northam is a place whose character is shaped by its position in the Avon Valley. As one of the region’s principal service towns, it connects broad grain-growing country with Perth via the Great Eastern Highway and a rail corridor. Parkland and walking areas follow the river through town. Northam’s Bilya Koort Boodja Centre presents Nyoongar culture and environmental knowledge, linking the contemporary town to the traditions of the land’s First Peoples. The annual Avon Descent begins here, sending competitors downriver towards Perth.
