dc.description.abstractView of a hillside with a waterfall cascading down rocks to a stretch of relatively still water. The surrounding vegetation includes thin trunked trees with sparse foliage and low growing shrubs. The Falls and the Serpentine Dam, which is a major water catchment area, are located 54 kilometers SW of Perth near the Darling Range. For many years the Serpentine Falls has been a popular recreational destination for Perth residents.
