Arriving in Hyden was an experience in its self. Checking the campervan in to Wave Rock Caravan Park and heading off to check out the sites. Having heard so much about the place we were excited to check it out. When you arrive head to the wave rock kiosk and ask them about the saltwater pool. Which is 4 times saltier than the Dead Sea. Not realizing that you shouldn’t really put your head under water there we dove in and it was unbelievable our eyes we stinging. They have a shower right next to the pool so when you hop out you can jump under straight away. Going back to the campsite for a little Gin and Tonic before heading 200m to wave rock itself.
Wave Rock is beautiful and unbelievable a big rock carved over hundreds of thousands of years to make a giant wave. Staying so close to wave rock we went back and visited it 3-4 times throughout the afternoon and morning just to see what it looks like at different time of day. There is a walk you can do around wave rock it goes for a couple of KMs so take water. On the walk there are checkpoints that have different things to look at and finish up at hippos mouth. Another massive rock carved by nature into what looks likes a hippo’s head. Than a short walk back to the caravan park for a swim in the pool.
FOOD: being in the middle of nowhere I recommend taking food to cook yourself. Steak cooked on the BBQ with salad, washed down with a glass of red wine or G and T.
