Take a 30-minute drive east from Perth and you will arrive in Western Australia’s first and oldest national park, where you will find an abundance of beautiful spots to have a picnic or BBQ. The beautiful Hovea Falls and National Park Falls flow in winter and spring, which is also the best time of year to see the stunning wildflowers. You might even see native wildlife, such as western grey kangaroos, lazing around in the park.

The park has a number of walk and cycle trails leading you through jarrah, marri, flooded gums, swamp peppermint, and paperbark trees, and there’s the spooky Swan View Tunnel too!

Bring your bicycle to explore the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail. Visit the lookouts for perfect views of Perth City and the Swan Coastal Plain, and maybe just capture that perfect pic for Instagram.
