About this park
Mount Brown Lookout is a day-use reserve with walking tracks and a modern picnic area overlooking York in Western Australia's Avon Valley. Located near the York cemetery, the site offers panoramic views across the town and surrounding countryside—particularly striking at sunrise or sunset. A walking track ascends the hill (with a gentler 4x4 loop alternative), and facilities include picnic areas and toilets. The lookout suits visitors after a short walk and scenic stop rather than overnight stays. It's a peaceful spot to take in Avon Valley views. Check with the Shire of York for current access conditions and any seasonal closures.
