Why no one camps in summer — especially in Western Australia.
Chiddarcooping Rock is a huge granite outcrop in the Wheatbelt, around 400km from Perth — and it looks calm, quiet, and perfect… until you realise just how much heat the rock holds — and how relentless the flies can be.

In this video, we explore Chiddarcooping Rock, a lesser-known Wheatbelt granite formation with walking areas and wide-open views across regional WA. It’s quiet, exposed, and looks calm enough… until the heat starts rising and the flies don’t leave you alone.

The original plan was to camp on the rock.
The reality? Extreme heat, constant flies, a quick rethink, and a reminder that sometimes the smartest adventure decision is knowing when to call it early.

If you’re searching for hidden places in Western Australia, Wheatbelt road trip stops, or granite rock formations near Perth, this is a spot worth knowing about — just maybe not in the middle of summer.

This is DC Life — real trips, real decisions, and the occasional plan that melts (and gets swarmed) before we do.
