Millstream-Chichester National Park - Homestead


Faye outside the original Millstream Homestead, now the Millstream Visitor Centre and museum. The homestead is set beside an enchanting tropical oasis amongst the red dust of the Pilbara. Thousands of birds flock to this delightful spot, where ferns, palms and rushes grow in abundance.
