Scott National Park is a national park in the South West region of Western Australia, 265 km (165 mi) south of Perth.[1][2]

It is based on the catchment area of the Scott River and the eastern bank of the Blackwood River, and occurs in part on the Scott Coastal Plain.[3] It has a population of honey possum in the park.[4]

It has had reviews of its flora and fauna due to the proximity of mining exploration and activity.[5][6][7]
