Caves Road (Western Australia)

Caves Road is a 111-kilometre-long (69 mi)[1] scenic route in the South West region of Western Australia.

It connects western Busselton with Augusta, running along or to the west of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste ridge, and is an alternative route to Bussell Highway.

From there the road travels southwards, between the coast and Bussell Highway, which it rejoins at the northern edge of Augusta.

It is a narrow winding road in most parts, and much has been made of its picturesque quality[5] and passage through Karri forest.

In August 1921, a key section of the road going northwards was paved, allowing motor-cars to travel the route both ways for the first time.
