Love Coolgardie, great spot for a picnic with good toilet facilities. Remember our family trips to Kalgoorlie as a child.

Awesome experience The locals were very accommodating and happy to share stories and pointing out even more interesting facts about their region. Highly recommend a visit.

What a fantastic opportunity there is something for everyone from a beautiful bottle collection to minerals history old tools and a lot of interesting information. The lady at the counter was friendly and very helpful. A must stop if it's on your way. And only $5 ...or less....

Coolgardie Visitors centre is a must stop place as it has an amazing museum of Western Australian history. Beautifully displayed and so much information.

Very well presented. Definitely worth a visit

Lovely lady helped at visitors centre with some direction to get my van fixed 😀 🙌 😊 and even lent us a vacum cleaner to do something in our van Always love Coolgardie ❤️

This museum was alot better then I had originally expected. Coolgardie is a very small goldfields town but has had such a rich history and I learned quite a bit from the experience. The exhibit boasts a few rooms setting as dioramas from the gold rush era. The building itself used to be the old Coolgardie Court House and has its own history. The curator was very friendly and knowledgeable and helpful. If you are touring the goldfields region then I strongly suggest you pay a visit. Adults only $4, seniors and children only $2

On a recent trip to Merredin I visited the visitor information centre Peter was very helpful and informative of the local attractions and facilities. He gave an excellent tour of the Cummins theatre .which has a fascinating history about the original owners, how it was constructed ,the many celebrities that have passed through and saw the beautiful heritage building. This time of year the country scenery is stunning

Great staff but never open on the weekends, which is when the bulk on the tourists are in town. Now has a shaded bus stop sort of area that people can use. Opposite side of the grassed area to the toilet block (which IS open on the weekends)

Thank you to the very helpful lady that directed us to some beautiful destinations, Mangowine Homestead, Dowerin for their fantastic butcher,Op Shop and the public toilets with hot showers, then finally the festival at Toodyay, a day full of fun, good food and live entertainment.

Rosie was great!! Just easy to talk to, very informative and helpful. And Karina was wonderful also. Highly recommend going here to talk about the whole region and get really helpful information. Really impressed.

Nice visitor centre! Public toilet is just beside this. Easy to park.

The best customer service! Called up to book tickets for the Prospector and Peter hand delivered them to my workplace in town. The team is amazing we have had the best experiences with everyone.

Great customer service!

Took my 13 year old son and we hired motorbikes and safety gear. Great open tracks so beginners don't have to worry about hitting trees, and a longer "enduring" track that weaves around the farm and through the bush also. Variety of tracks and various jumps from small to medium table tops. I hadn't ridden for 20 years and my son had never ridden, but by the end of the day we had progressed up to doing some great jumps and landing them well. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED family activity.

Took my boy there for his first ride today, was impressed straight away by the courtesy of the guys running it! They fitted Hugo up and gave him some key pointers and he was off! Definitely heading back to camp for the weekend ASAP!

Wont be back! I've seen the track just deteriorate over the last few years. I used to go a few times a year, i went there today no track maintenance done since the first time i went there!! Very very disappointing! Surprise pot holes on the other side of the jumps. Worn out jump lips. Well well over grown grass. Maintenance work at the facilities still not finished. Unkept camping areas. Fire pits need replacing. A place so far away from the perth cbd needs to put in the extra effort to draw the numbers. The lack of effort has left me with a bad taste. I will be taking my business else where. (Edit 3 years on my opinion still remains, i have not returned! Those who have, Have noted that it is the same unkempt place)

This is a great place to take the family for the day or the week. The staff there are really friendy and know what they are doing. I took my 6, 10 and 13 year old kids ther for the day and they rode around for 7 hours non stop. There are motor bikes to hire or you can bring your own. There is also camping facilities right next to the office. Well worth the drive out to Wyalkatchem, only two and half hours from Perth.

Awesome park with some great tracks and friendly staff. Hired a bike which was in great condition and noteably well maintained. First time I’ve visited and will definitely be back again soon.

Took my son up to wmp for his birthday. Brilliant day, Great set up with tracks for beginners like my son and seasoned riders. Thanks Justin for a great day.

Great place to ride and very friendly staff who will help out where needed. Nice supply of spare parts too which is extremely handy out bush!

We had a drive from Perth, to the Ettamogah Pub in Cunderdin, because it's a traditional country pub designed like the 'Etamogah' cartoons which were by the infamous Ken Maynard. The interior was nice with lots of cartoon drawing pages and images around the pub. And the food was of good standard and was enjoyable too.

Great stop for a lunch break. Good value food options , eg roast meat and gravy roll for $10, as well as usual pub grub. Unique style, but large indoor and outdoor areas.

Looks cool, iconic. Inside not so much. Walked in at 11:45 on Sunday, chairs on the tables, a stench coming from the toilet corridor. One server down the end near the kitchen talking to two other customers about a function? Either way we waited for 15 minutes and ended up walking out and continued our way back to Perth. Recommendation: Take a photo outside and don’t bother going in. Male and Female toilets filthy, stinky and graffitied up, it felt extremely grubby in the main bar, every surface needs a good scrub, fridges practically empty.

Had chops, mash, apple sauce and NO vegetables. The chops needed to go back due to under cooked. Chops mostly fat. Staff brilliant. Everything on the menu didn't have vegetables..... poor

Friendly service great atmosphere and the steak was amazing

Worth a visit due to the iconic building. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Our burgers & chips were fantastic. Lots of funny Etamogah Pub signs and drawings on the walls to look at. Recommended.

Sadly I wasn't convinced by what was written on the menu and what was received. Ordered fillet steak and mushroom sauce. Cut of beef was rump and sauce was gravy with a couple of mushrooms on it. It was nice and cooked well but, I had to argue for a sauce refund.

Western Australia's best kept secret! We were looking for accommodation while in the wheatbelt to do some astrophotography, in particular the Milky Way over Lake Ninan. With only three rooms available to the public on weekends, we had the magnificent homestead and outbuildings to ourselves, a group of two couples. The welcome from Wendy and the continental breakfast she provided were first class and the whole experience is testament to the hard work by her and other volunteers. The warm and comfy accommodation is full of artifacts from the 1800s and doubles as a museum display when there's noone booked to stay, so it is a true old world experience. In keeping with this theme, there's no internet service and the bathrooms are in another building about 100m away. Neither of these factors bothered us but in fairness means that 4/5 is the maximum possible score. I suggest the experience is best suited to adults with a sense of history that enjoy doing something different. We certainly hope to return sometime.

Do yourself a favour and go have a look..it's worth it, the morning tea is really good.

Great place to visit. If a large group of people visit at one time, they can arrange ( for a small charge) to have Devonshire scones, cream and jam.

A lovely surprise! This homestead has been lovingly restored and maintained. A great place to visit, and stay overnight. Also has a beautiful function centre in the original barn. Open weekends too.

Great place to visit , original homestead. Can even book a room to sleep in. Great coffee and scones

Had a stall at the recent Goomalling Markets held at Slater Homestead. Beautiful setting. Well worth a visit.

Very well restored and well worth the visit

It is a wonderful place to look the york city from top. You can easily park your car over there and enjoy the scenic beauty pf nature.

Mount Brown Lookout, offering a breathtaking view over the entire town of York. The vast landscape below made me feel as if the whole world was at my feet, evoking the spirit of a solo backpacker on a grand adventure.

From the top carpark there is an amazing 360degree lookout of all the canola fields, it's beautiful and worth the drive.

Perfect spot . Very nice drive . Refreshing .

Oh my gosh I highly highly highly! recommended visiting York , Western Australia and heading up to the look out . The view is amazing 😍 I chose to visit when the canola fields are out and all the patches of yellow with the green is stunning!

Lovely lookout, as far as you can see you will see beautiful yellow canola fields.

As lookouts go, this was very good. Excellent views of York township and the extensive Canola padocks. Mind blowing if they weren't past the yellow flowering period.

I was on my way to wave rock so Put this on my stop list. Very cool bridge awesome to cross and if your game give it a shake it’s pretty fun. Parking on both sides and river views are amazing

The suspension bridge certainly does swing. Some wooden planks require maintenance and are lifting. Great views of the river and a small Church on reaching the other side (unfortunately the Church is locked during the week - open on Sundays).

Neat little suspension bridge just off the side of the nearby playground. We had a nice stroll across the bridge where we saw several campervans parked just across the river. Novel experience of walking on the suaying bridge! Lovely scenery all around...

This area has been updated recently. There is a large park with playground equipment for kids. There is also a relatively new public bathroom. Nice area for a picnic. I wish there were some eateries nearby for a coffee or snack. For these, you'd have to walk to the main street. The suspension bridge is a novelty. Be careful with your little kids when on the bridge.

Awesome spot visiting wile camping shops close by

Well done to council building this from one side of river to the town and beautiful park area.

Pretty much what the label says. A nice short stroll to the caravan parking on the south side of the river

We saw this place from opposite where we were having our lunch and decided to make a visit. We were able to pay for entrance tickets on the spot and thereafter entered the museum where we spent around 30mins or so enjoying the views of the various models of cars and vehicles that were displayed in there. It was an amazing experience to see the well maintained vehicles with some dating back to many many years ago! Our 2 kids thoroughly enjoyed the visit and we took many pics with the models. Worth a visit if you are in the area!

What a fantastic spot! The York Motor Museum is packed with treasures from the legendary Ford Model T and some seriously cool old motorbikes to a jaw-dropping 1958 Porsche Cabriolet. Every corner has something that makes you stop and go “wow.” The collection is beautifully kept, and the stories behind the cars make it even better. The staff are super friendly and clearly love what they do, which adds to the whole experience. Whether you’re a car nut or just curious, this place is a must-see when in York.

I got dragged in here by my elderly father, and I admittedly was not keen. We were greeted by Jenny who was a ray of sunshine! While I'm not a great car enthusiast the array of history on display was fascinating. But I absolutely loved the stories of the original owners showing the history of particular vehicles on display. Learning about the owner, what role they played in the community, and about their families, complete with photos. This so was a real treat and I credit to this historic town.

Very beautiful place to visit. Everywhere you look, you find something unique, old, and special from cars to small things like vintage fuel cans. Very well maintained, clean, and organized. We really enjoyed it. The lady at the entrance was very friendly. You can tell that the owner has really been collecting for years and years.

It truly is a great place to send 30mins to an hour wandering thru and seeing all the treasures that they hold. I even seen BRUM 🤣. " a little yellow car named Brum from a kids TV show"

Very interesting museum, I haven’t see many of models in my life though😳

This is a great museum and you don’t have to be a car fanatic to enjoy it. There are cars and bikes that you can admire just for their sheer beauty. They really knew how to design cars back in the day. Loved the little retro caravan too. I also enjoyed reading about past owners and their families and learning how the cars arrived at the museum. Friendly staff, cheap entry and you can take as long as you like. Well worth a visit.

Stunning building. We enjoyed a walk through almost the entire hall; you can try on costumes for photos. It's a lovely town and this is the crown.

An absolute beauty of a building, appreciate the interior such as the hall as much as you would appreciate the exterior. Definitely worth the stop.

Nice and historical place to visit for learning of this town

Beautiful wedding venue. Inside and out.

The York Town Hall is now the visitors centre, which is open to the public. Come in and have a look and the original stage area and upper floor seating, the rooms around have history of York on the walls.

It was exceptionally, naturally beautiful place and met some lovely people

First stop on our York day trip. Beautiful to photograph with clean toilets. Also houses the visitor centre for information on York and surrounding areas.

Windward Ballooning was a fantastic experience. We had a very peaceful journey on a great day!! All of the ground staff & pilots were amazing and very lovely. The breakfast is the perfect way to finish the experience.

A wonderful sunrise experience with the sun at one end and the moon at the other. Awesome! The staff were very helpful, polite, and went out of their way to assist. The total experience was awesome. A perfect landing. A wonderful champagne breakfast

We had an amazing experience with Windward Ballooning! My partner organised it for my birthday, and it was the perfect way to celebrate. From the start, they ensured we were well-informed, and I felt very safe during the flight. If you're apprehensive about heights, this is an excellent first step to overcoming that fear. I highly recommend this wonderful experience. The champagne breakfast was a nice touch to conclude the adventure, although the food could have been better. Overall, the team at Windward did an excellent job!

My second flight with Windward in 3 years and honestly, there is nothing one can fault about a hot air balloon flight with these guys. The team at Windward (Brian, Shane and Brenton) are professional, friendy and go out of their way to ensure everyone has an epic experience. And Safety is paramount as well.... To top off an awesome flight we had a fully cooked breakfast at a local bistro in Northam. Could not have gone any better. If you haven't been up in a hot air balloon, you don't know what you're missing out on.

Absolutely awesome flight. Thankyou to John and Shane and crew for the amazing time. I absolutely loved it. Will definitely be letting people know to come and book with you guys. I just wanted to get back in and go up again. You guys are awesome 👌 👏 👍 😍

We had the most amazing morning! We were greeted by such a friendly lady for tea and coffee before Brendan, victor and Shane took us out to the most beautiful site where we seen the sunrise from a spectacular balloon. All the staff members worked so hard to give us an enjoyable, safe and memorable experience. Every question was answered with such thought and patience. The saftey briefings were spot on. The breakfast after was perfect and plentiful, even included great gluten free options! Could not recommend this enough and can’t thank the guys enough for all their help and for being so accomadting! Will definitely be back!

Fantastic memorable family experience. We were keen to do during Canola season, and it did not disappoint, the morning was perfect. We had about an hour in the balloon. A little icy on our feet, recommend wearing warm socks. Sven, our pilot was excellent, knowledgeable and we felt very safe. Windward was well organised, from booking to the great ground team all round from start to finish. Lovely breakfast to follow. Highly recommend.

Thank you to the lovely friendly knowledgeable people who helped make our caravan clubs visit to your town so enjoyable. Wandering Stars C/Club..

Used the dump point and public toilet all of which was easy to find and very clean. The little cafe was good and popular on a public holiday with the tourists.

Loved it Very friendly people So many beautiful native plants 🧐 And we have had some good laughs along the way 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍well be back 👏👏👏🧚‍♀️😘🌞🌞

Never open Tried to pay for the donation camp Spent money in town instead

Great friendly staff very willing to help you with your inquiries, good layout of the shop with locally made items available. Clean neat and tidy shop and location. Recommend a visit

Very helpful staff, well laid out visitor center that is very helpful for tourists. Extremely clean amenities too.

Very friendly and helpful staff

Very helpful, lots of information, made our visit a great one.

Fantastic exposition about the migration of European 'Displaced Persons' as well as Souther Europeans to Australia from 1949 to 1965 elaborating on the background and challenges the migrants faced upon arrival.

Yea, I'd visit Northam. It's an awesome location

Not only are they not dog friendly they are rude about it. No signs posted telling you anything, so how are you meant to know? ESP?

Great information center! Good information on hand, perfect location, clean toilets.

Quite a range of things you could buy. I would like to see some nicer simple tourist souvenir options.

Large information centre with historical information, local artists craft and produce, and heaps of tourist information. Staff were friendly.

Thanks for all your efforts in helping me get to the airport. Still confused, however. Today I got to the airport without having to pay more. Not your fault. Last time I had to pay. Very confusing. I suspect the railway staff make it up as they go¿???????

Lovely information centre. The young lady that served me with my ticket to the Mill was so bright & enthusiastic. The Connors Mill was very enjoyable $6.50 for Adult or $ 4.50 concessions. Great little township

Toodyay is pronounced Too-jay. Super friendly and helpful staff. Thank you for recommending both museums and the all year-round christmas shop. It's a very nice town 1 hour away from Perth. Don't forget to pick up a souvinier coin for memory. Highly recommended to visit.

Pleasant staff jail nicely done up and worth a visit.Toodyay has retained a lot of buildings that dated back to early settlement.

Great setup, very lovely local crafts on sale, Michelle is a wonderful customer service officer! Thanks 😊

Michelle was so helpful, her knowledge about her town was amazing. Pointed out beautiful locations to walk around and enjoy the lovely town. Beautiful cafes to sit down and relax. Toodyay has always been a favorite stop over. Oh what hard golf course and so pictures walk. Thank you Toodyay

Wish everyone was so lovely to interact with as the young lady that helped us with our Toodyay accommodation query. You get back what you give with people and because of that I'm sure this young lady (sorry I didn't get her name) will always have happy and interesting days. Well done Toodyay!

Beautiful, tidy and a quiet place to go and enjoy camping or even a day visit . Nice paths to go for a walk. Good spot for kids to have a swim.

With plenty of parking and a grass area, pack a picnic and head to Lake Leschenaultia. Good spot for family and friends get together, especially if you have children. There is a barrier in place for swimmers. Outside the barrier seen paddlers on paddle boards and kayaking.

This location was an incredible experience for both our family and friends. We enjoyed an entire day immersed in activities. This is an ideal spot for camping. The kids had a blast swimming, and the highlight was renting a kayak. 30-minute or 1-hour sessions priced at $16 and $26 respectively. Needless to say, we're looking forward to making this a frequent destination.

Such a great spot for family picnic and gatherings. Plenty of car parking space, a great swimming spot, super clean flush toilet, great shower facility and lots of walking trails.

Perfect spot for a family day out. We did picnic, Bbq and enjoyed our swimming too. Continued with a fun time Kayaking. Beautiful natural views all around, we will be back for more!

Fantastic place for a drive, picnic or whole day out. Great facilities, very clean, lots of grass areas and shaded areas. BBQs available too, plus a shop. Bring bikes and water craft and spend the day relaxing.

Lovely place for a family day out. Pack a picnic or usethe BBQ provided there ( do get busy so may have to wait your turn) dedicated swim area in the fresh water lake but has sand like a beach to enter. Playground is there but the old cafe isn't open anymore so make sure you take own food and drinks. Limited seating is there so go early or take chairs ect.

Stop in here every now and then to check water levels and snap a few pictures you can walk across the dam and there is toilets available

Sep 26 2025 left kalgoorlie. Walking the pipeline. Finished on the 16 oct 2025. 560km.

One of my favourite places in Perth :) - Plenty of picnic spots - bins and bench areas - heaps of stairs for fitness finatics - beautiful rose garden - full of kangaroos! - beautiful view - fun walkway over the weir :) - full of helpful historic maps and plaques to find out how the weir came to be - interesting historic buildings :)

A project once made fun of now stands as one of the most important places in WA history.When Nature's beauty and man's creativity gets merged, wonders get created .Such a wonder was built between 1898-1903 for the purpose of transporting water to the Easter Goldfields of Kalgoorile. The dam is now under the Water Corporation of WA and their website provides information about the dam details such as facilities,Opening hours , direction etc. https://www.watercorporation.com.au/About-us/Visiting-our-dams/Mundaring-Weir The No1 Pump Station is a great place to learn about the incredible early engineering technology that they had used to pump water nearly 600km from Mundaring Weir to the Goldfields. This place is really a must see and one of the beautiful places to know more about heritage, to take wonderful pictures of scenery and even spend time with family or friend groups. https://youtu.be/c3O16ZOH0Eg The place have picnic areas, public toilets and walking trails. This project once called as "Scheme Of Madness" was designed by Thomas Crowley Hodgson and was brought to life by an Engineer in Chief C.Y.O'Connor. At present day the weir supplies water to the Eastern Goldfields and Agricultural region. The walking trail experience throug the Weir , lawns and gardens are really a great experience to get to the historical importance of this place. The Mundaring Weir now forms a part of the Goldfields Water Supply Scheme or The Golden Pipeline.

The Mundaring dam is a top local attraction and just 15 minutes from the Mundaring town site. There are panoramic photo opportunities during a crossing of the dam wall. On one side is the picturesque reservoir and on the other the heritage pumping station with its tall chimney stack. A less explored area can be discovered at the far end of the dam wall (coming from Mundaring Weir Road). A steepish descent, down a series of steps (with handrail) to the base of the dam wall, leads visitors to the pumping station (100m). A tranquil place surrounds the museum with a few rest benches under some shady trees. There is also an interesting electronic meter that turns over / counts - every time 1000 litres of dam water is used in Kalgoorlie (located nearby the pumping station museum). The Mundaring Weir park area is extensive and perfect for BBQ's with a number of designated areas complete with stove tops. There is an abundance of majestic trees (many varieties). A natural habitat for birdlife and the perfect place for a relaxing stroll. A few friendly kangaroos are always out and about.

Nice place to drive and cycle to. There are kangaroos, free fruit and a weir that supplies drinking water for Perth. Also there is the story and the bust of C.Y O'Connor. An engineer that supplied the goldfields with liquid gold (water). There is also a rose garden in the middle of nowhere, a great plethora of colours is observed during spring and a bit of summer. It is an awesome walk along the top of the weir.

A wonderful place to visit on the Perth Hills, having the state’s one of the most important engineering structures, access to the weir overseeing the idyllic C Y O’ Connor lake, plenty of walk trails and benches through the greenery of wild flowers and trees. Large number of gas top barbecue facilities along with separate toilets for male, female, disabled on both sides (west and east) of the weir. Several water fountains nicely positioned, offering quick rehydration and a splash on the face on a hot day. We were lucky enough to have been greeted by a family of kangaroos in the bush to the east of the rose garden. The viewing area to the south of the C Y O’Connor Memorial offers a splendid view of the both sides of the weir. One caution; be aware of mosquitoes and flies in the afternoon.

A refreshing hiking experience, especially for those who appreciate well-maintained trails. Many pathways, particularly around popular areas like the picnic grounds and leading to National Park Falls, are commendably compacted. This makes for easy walking, even after rain, and allows for a smooth, enjoyable stride without constantly watching your footing for loose rocks or uneven ground.

Love this National Park. Went today 23rd Aug 25 and it was very busy, due to the waterfall flowing. Saw some wildflowers that are also out atm, they will be in full bloom soon. It was a lovely adventurous day out for myself and my son.

Chasing waterfalls and forest trails at John Forrest National Park 🌳 Fresh air, forest paths, and endless views. Eagle View Trail is one of the best and longest hikes in WA, the views worth every step. There are trails that are more kids friendly, but if you are up for the challenge, go for the Eagle View Trail. It says 5 hours in the guideboard, depending on individual body fitness, it varies between 3 to 5 hours to comlplete the trail. Cost is $17 per car

What a treasure—so close to the city, yet it feels a world away. John Forrest National Park is bursting with life right now. Wild orchids are blooming along the trails, and the diversity of flora is simply breathtaking. The granite boulders and bushland offer a kind of rugged serenity that’s hard to come by. Nature lovers, photographers, and botanists alike will find themselves utterly spoiled. We wandered for hours, spotting native orchids, soaking in expansive valley views, and marvelling at the interplay of rock and wildflower. No formal playgrounds, but Mother Nature provides her own—giant rocks, winding trails, and shaded nooks perfect for kids to explore. Didn’t see any restrooms on our walk, so plan ahead—but honestly, the sheer beauty of the place more than makes up for it. One of Perth’s most precious wild escapes.

Just a 30-minute drive from Perth, John Forrest National Park offers a serene escape into Western Australia's natural beauty. As the state's first national park, established in 1900, it boasts a rich tapestry of history and nature. Wander through trails lined with towering jarrah and marri trees, and discover seasonal waterfalls like Hovea Falls cascading over granite outcrops. The historic Swan View Tunnel, a relic from 1895, adds a touch of intrigue to your journey. Whether you're seeking a leisurely stroll or a challenging hike, the park's diverse trails cater to all adventurers. Keep an eye out for native wildlife, including kangaroos and black cockatoos, as you immerse yourself in this tranquil haven.

Walking through John Forrest National Park, the scenery was absolutely stunning, and the air was filled with the fresh scent of nature. The only real challenge was the swarm of persistent flies — they turned the trip into a bit of a cheeky battle of wits!

On a beautiful day, I love heading to this spot with my family! Nestled in the hills of Perth, the views are breathtaking, and you can catch a glimpse of Perth City in the distance. You'll often see wild kangaroos hopping around 🦘 and colorful birds flitting about 🦜. It's such a fun place to take a walk, and on the way, you can discover natural waterfalls that lift your spirits. I highly recommend visiting whenever you have some free time—it's such a wonderful experience!

Had a very lovely lunch here recommended by friends. We had the chicken and the radicchio salad starter. Both really yummy. Highly recommend coming early as well for a quieter experience.

The vineyard and tasting experience were wonderful — scenic views and excellent staff. However, after upgrading to the $145 package with lunch, we discovered the same meal cost only $48 on the restaurant menu. The explanation about a “promotion” felt unclear, and no gesture was made to address it. It’s a pity, because everything else was enjoyable. I hope future guests are informed upfront about any promotions or pricing differences.

Stumbled upon this great winery and how glad we were we did! Had the &48 lunch special, entree and main, and of course we had to have 2 serves of the delicious bread and olives. Cannot fault any of the food, and the service was excellent! Will definitely be going back again 👍

We visited in a colder month, luckily with good sunshine. Nice experience from wine tasting, alfresco lunch to hanging out in the afternoon. Very quiet and relaxing.

We had one of the tastiest lunch meals today at Upper Reach Winery. The servings are full of flavour, well presented and with an entree. more than enough. The set menu choice of both an entree and main for less than $50 is a winner. This was all enjoyed with a bottle of their Cab Merlot. We will certainly visit again.

We joined the Winery Tour and Tasting for $80 per person and upgraded on arrival to the Full Package with a 2-course lunch for $145 per adult. The tour itself was enjoyable — a great introduction to the winery, friendly staff, and well-presented wines. However, we later noticed that the same 2-course meal was listed at $48 on the restaurant menu. When we asked about the difference, we were told there was a promotion running, though this wasn’t mentioned when we upgraded. It ended up costing us an extra $17 per person (over $50 for three adults). While the food and wine were both lovely, the lack of pricing transparency and no offer to address the discrepancy were disappointing. Hopefully, the winery can improve communication around promotions so guests feel fully informed.

Upper Reach Winery & Restaurant never disappoints. I've now had a few visits to taste wine, with a couple of impromptu lunches in the restaurant with friends or family and have been very pleased by the amazing team that provided wonderful service at each visit. I must say, the quality of the food somehow equals or even betters the outstanding service. Unfortunately, the incredibly inviting sight and smell of the food meant we didn't wait to grab a photo before we engulfed most of our meals. My sister and I rated this lunch as probably the best we have ever enjoyed. Thank you, Upper Reach Winery & Restaurant.

Brilliant birthday outing for me. Such a treat and wonderful therapy. I got to feed goats, play with rabbits, Guinea pigs, peacocks. This is a must visit and worth every penny. All the animals looked very well cared for.

Visited for the first time in a lot my time today. The staff were lovely and helpful, and my child had a great time petting the small animals. She also fell in love with one of the birds, who was interacting with her. There was plenty to do for all ages. We didn't end up staying g for lunch, but the cafe looked clean and comfortable, and the food looked good.

Great place for young and old to spend time among some animals. They have a nice small cafe there too. There is a small tractor/train ride for small kids, rabbit and genuine pig feeding pens, jumping castle and set times where you can bottle feed baby goats

Such a beautiful animal farm in the Swan Valley. Very accessible and lots of parking. Came on a weekday so it was nice and quiet. I live how large the farm is, plenty of grass area with picnic tables to eat. A large variety of animals, with open pen access to feed/pat them. There is also a feeding area where you can hold bunnies & guinea pigs. They also do animal bottle feeds three times a day where you can milk feed baby goats & sheep. A great space for kids with a playground, bouncy castle, merry-go-round & train ride. Recommend coming for a fun family day out.

Family friendly and cosy little farm. There are parking assistants who guide you where to park and ticketing lady was kind and gentle. Kids loved the unlimited tractor rides and helping feed lots farm animals . Winter weather was breezy. Recommended. 1-2hrs

The best place you can take your little one. Cheap enough for everyone and has a great display of wildlife. There's nothing to exotic there's but the kids love it. And that's the best part. Or toddler was so excited to feed the goats and see the birds. Feed bunnies, and guinea pigs. The works dodgiest merry-go-round. What could go wrong. Highly recommend this place.

A wonderful place for kids to interact with animals like rabbits, guinea pigs, goats, and kangaroos. They especially enjoyed feeding milk to the goats, such a fun and memorable experience!

River river such a beautifull river with water and rock with sunlight just a sliver Diving in, it gave me such shiver but the water so cold it made me feel old no longer the youth i could only feel one tooth rising up from sea there was only one thing i could see the swan river swan river in all majesty

🟦 The first time we visited Perth several years ago, we stayed at Novotel Perth Langley ( which is a budget hotel just across the Swan River). ✳️ That time, my husband and myself had joined a tour group and the tour agency booked this hotel for us. 🔵 When I first saw the Swan River, I was all very excited, and told my hubby we must visit the river by ourselves first, before the tour bus comes to pick us up each morning. 🟧 So there were about 2 to 3 mornings where I woke up very early at 6am plus and rushed to the Swan River to stroll and take pics. Because I am kiasu. 😅 🔷️ The tour bus eventually also took us to Swan River, but that is at a different river bank area. The Swan river looks super clean and we saw some swans at some parts of the river too.

Awesome place to visit to relax , fishing , running and you can do exercise at the river side or a walk with a cup of coffee . Awesome place for tourists to saw nature , birds and trees .

Walk as if you are kissing the earth with your feet The Miracle is Walking on Earth Walking with ease and with peace of mind on the earth is a wonderful miracle. Some people say that only walking on burning coals or walking on spikes or on water are miracles, but I find that simply walking on the earth is a miracle. Neige Marchand, when translating The Miracle of Mindfulness into French, entitled the book La Miracle, C’est de Marcher sur Terre. I like that title very much. Imagine that you and I were two astronauts. We have landed on the moon, and we find that we cannot return to earth because the engine of our ship is broken beyond repair. We will run out of oxygen before the control center on earth can send another ship up to rescue us. We know that we have only two more days to live. What would you and I think of, other than going back to our dear green planet and walking side by side, in peace and without worries? Only when confronted with death do we know the precious value of our steps on the green planet. Now let’s imagine ourselves as those astronauts who have somehow survived their experience. Let’s celebrate our happiness and our joy at being able to walk on our dear earth again. We manifest this miracle in each of our steps. Lotus flowers bloom as we walk. Maintain your practice, aware that your steps are creating miracles. The earth appears before your eyes as something miraculous. With that correct understanding, with that meditative thought, you will achieve blissful steps on this planet earth. Stand on one foot, and be aware that it is resting upon the earth; see the great sphere upon which it rests. See it clearly – how wonderfully round it is. While walking, look down and anticipate the ground where you are about to place your foot, and when you do, mindfully experience your foot, the ground, and the connection between your foot and the ground. Think of your foot as an Emperor’s seal. ~Thich Nhat Hanh

Swan River Scenic Cruise on Captain Cook Cruises for 2 hours 45 minutes is one of the must try itinerary in your Perth Trip. You can witness the beautiful view of Swan River in your journey from Perth to Fremantle and vice versa.

One of the beautiful places in Perth. I come here in morning for the jogging. The environment is peaceful and enthusiastic. People come here for daily walk and cheer the amazing environment. Children come to play with their parents. This is quite a good hub for water sport where different water sports are available for all visitors.

Such a pretty scenic river! It’s well worth the views. I’ve been on the Rottnest express and Captain cook cruises this past week and there’s so much to see and take in.

I like Outback Splash as it's not too big. It has something for everyone. The little kids have Octopus Bay, there's also splash Island with safer slides, tipping buckets etc. The bigger kids & adults have the 4 big slides at the back. Theres the lagoon which has a pool and ample seating plus a bar & food service. Other attractions to keep the kids amused include giant chess, mini golf, timber maze, tyre maze, hedge maze. There is a small playground. Lots of beautiful grassed open areas. Numerous food outlets such as burger Bar, snack shack & the pool house or set up a spot on the grass & bring your own picnic. You can bring your own shade or hire one of the many they have on offer such as picnic shades, huts, cabanas, marquee etc. There are lockers to hire for valuables and toilets and change rooms. Heaps of free parking out the front. A great day out!

Best experience in Australia for a water park environment. We visited on a quiet day (just got lucky). All the rides are very adventurous (our favourite was called “blackout”) Bravo to all the lifeguards who did make us feel safe. The only thing they need to improve is to have heated pools during cold temperatures to make all the visitors feel cozy and make their day. Definitely coming back again. You can bring your gazebo if you want to save your money by not booking expensive cabanas. We did use a tent (you can bring gazebo like everyone, depending on your needs).

EPIC! First time visiting for our 2 year olds birthday. But really the 4 year old had the time of his life. Not only are the kids slides so fun and a great set up there’s heaps of grass to set up and the gardens are gorgeous. You need the whole day and more!

This is SUCH a fun place! We loved the new 'The Lagoon' and its deep-water swimming pool areas. When the warmer weather comes around, I know it'll be super popular! We also love that all the different parts of Outback Splash are all close together, so it doesnt take long to walk from one fun area to another :) We cant wait to return in the summer!

Best family day out! We have been going to Outback Splash for years and it is even better now with the inclusion of the lagoon pool. The kids love the water slides and there’s always lots of shade, the pool bar is the perfect spot for a cheeky cocktail 🍹 Can’t wait to spend all summer here!

A child’s dream come true!! What fun! 🤩 such fun slides, pool, loads of place to set up, we were there over the busy December season and still found place to set up… also we chose the perfect day, it was cloudy and well I feel that’s the best time to go 🫶🏻

Great fun for the whole family, went on Thursday. The kids big and small loved the waterslides. We went with a group of kids from 2-10 everyone had a great time. Beautiful grass areas, immaculately clean bathrooms. Great pool area and swim up bar (closed in the day we went but looked amazing) Seen some Koalas played Mini golf and had some ice cream! Great day

The tour is really cool, filled with lots of interesting tidbits. The highlight of course being the live gold pour! You get to take home a medallion that you can see being minted. David the tour guide was great. The 9.30 am tour size is smaller.

A very informative and interesting place to visit. We did the mint tour, shout out to our guides Nicole and Dakota, they were very knowledgeable, professional and engaging. We loved the interactive activities but the highlight was definitely the 1 tonne coin. Worth a visit.

The tour was fantastic, seeing Sophie pouring molten gold to form an ingot was something I'll remember for a long time. among the other highlights was the giant 1 tonne $,1000,000 gold coin, with a current value of $214,000 000, and the chance to lift a 2.4 kilo gold bar if you're in Perth a tour of the mint truly is a must

I came here to pick up my gold ⚱️I didn’t expect it to be this pretty! The place is beautiful and full of history. I love how the gold bars have the kangaroo design on them, it’s so cute and uniquely Australian!! 🦘😍 The staff were also very friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely keep ordering my gold here! ✨

Wow so much gold. The tour was fantastic, our hosts were excellent and funny. Worth a visit if going to Perth. Best to book tour before going.

Booked the 3.30pm tour for last Thursday. Wonderful experience and they had a guide who was witty and explained to us the history of Perth Mint very well. And I loved the gold bar making demo very much too.

Great place to visit. They have a large range of coins/bullion/jewellery for purchasing, the tour was fantastic and the staff were friendly. The toir sold out so im so thankful i pre booked online i would highly recommend this to anyone

The gallery itself isn’t very large and the exhibitions themselves are quite small. At the time of writing there was the Cast In Bronze exhibition which had some interesting pieces, Elise Blumann exhibition, Balancing Act exhibition and the Revivification exhibition all quite small and none that I would say are must see’s. Even the statue garden on the roof top didn’t have many statues. I feel if they had less exhibitions and made the ones they have larger and more interesting it would greatly improve. Possibly the next exhibitions would change my opinion but I really don’t feel like I need to hurry back.

The Art Gallery of Western Australia (AGWA) is a free-entry art museum located just north of Perth Station. One thing to note is that it cannot be accessed directly from street level—you need to go through the Level 1 concourse of the station, which can be a bit confusing at first. The gallery’s collection felt smaller than I expected, but it clearly shows respect and consideration for Aboriginal culture through many of its exhibits. When I visited, there was a special exhibition of monochrome photography. Since I used to attend a monochrome photography class myself, I wanted to take my time appreciating the works—but there were so many pieces that I only managed to view them briefly. Still, it was a highly enjoyable experience. Considering that admission is free, AGWA is an excellent spot to visit on a rainy day or when you’re looking for a calm, cultural experience in Perth.

Having recently lived in Brisbane, Canberra and the ACT, I will be honest and say that I find the AGWA underwhelming compared to what you’d expect from a state gallery The layout feels sparse, and while the Indigenous collection is important, the rest kinda lacks depth. The building itself is nice though.

Lovely peaceful art gallery with a diverse array of pieces. Joined a free tour (11am with Jill) and learned a lot of details you wouldn't otherwise know. Spent a happy couple of hours here.

Loved it, was so immersed in the work of Hale Tenger that I didn’t take any pictures, Borders / Borders was my favorite exhibition, would recommend.

Great place to spend the day looking at art and learning about the art landscape of WA. Bonus points for the friendly staff and the great contemporary art exhibition. Especially commendable is the art piece "Revivification", which is a must see.

It's not the Louvre but there's always an interesting exhibition going on, for a small city gallery. The building itself is nice to look at, be sure to see the view from the rooftop.

Awesome place to visit. 6 levels and lots to look at. Great views. We rode lift to top and walked down as it's easier on our legs. Fit people can walk up doing one level at a time. Lots to read and look at. It's all about time and bells.

A tower with bells in it, it's called the 'Bell Tower', located at the end of Barrack Street (called that because there used to be a barracks on it) nestled in the port 'North of the River' (an area in Perth that is North of the River, there is also an area south of the river called 'South of the River'). Home to historic bells, fabulous views and a great spot for a maternity shoot, even on a rainy day! Beautiful pics by Andrew Robertson of Gascoyne Media, with Perth pattern facts from Hidden de Tours.

Wow. This was great. Even 'played' on one of their bells, as part of their demonstration for us in 6s. What beautiful gifts these bells are to Perth & WA. The fantastic Gallopli Century Bell sitting in the middle floor and its daily reminder at Noon. Do not miss this on a day the Bell Ringers are practising.

Since day one our experience with the Bell Tower has been dreamy. The tower does not need any publicity, the view is stunning, the location is breathtaking, and the historical significance of it as a Perth Landmark speak for themselves. What needs a huge and well deserved shout out is the two lovely wedding planners who are in charge of everything weddings at the venue. We first met with Josephine, that gave us invaluable recommendations for vendors, giving us specific points of contact rather than just company names. Most of the vendors we ended up hiring, had worked with Josephine directly and we benefited greatly from their pre existing relationship, as this ensured faster communication, and knowledgeable vendors that knew how to work within the tower and its architecture. Not only Josephine was on top of everything, bringing up details we oversaw, suggesting alternatives and solutions to any issue we could try and foresee; she was also very proactive and efficient in sending notes with everything that had been discussed and decided during our meetings. She was always responsive to our queries and also added a personal touch to our day, by crocheting 3 small bees for our ring cushion, in line with our wedding theme. Throughout our experience in dealing with Josephine, I have always felt as if we were friends, and she genuinely cared for my wedding day. When Josephine had to go on annual leave, she organised a meeting with us and Georgie, also a wedding planner at the bell tower, that took over our wedding. Georgie was perfect. She helped me a lot during some crucial stressful situations, for instance, she independently liaised with one of my vendors, finding a solution to an issue that they had caused and could have costed me additional fees, or even worst, having to find another vendor. I was a little stressed when Josephine told me she wouldn't be present on our day, but that stress was completely unfounded. Georgie had everything under control and communicated with vendors on my behalf to optimise everything, directed my wedding party during rehearsal and even helped me prepare my centerpieces a few days before the wedding. Dealing with her was amazing, and i will never be able to repay her for the kindness, understanding and reassurance she offered me at a such delicate and important time. The wedding day went off without a hitch. I have absolutely no complaints to make, not about Georgie, not about the bell tower staff. Everyone was kind and professional and I really feel like our wedding exceeded any expectations I had. Thank you immensely, for being part of our story and for being so amazing at your jobs. With love, Bree

Highly recommended, it’s very interesting and I have never try bell chiming. Tour guide Jeff explaining interesting history of the Bell and the tower. The bell turning at level 5 attendant lady is very friendly and explain the history of the area, and the music is amazing i love the music bell makes.

Great way to kick off my stay. A self guided tour through the tower and a quick, but thorough, lesson in Bell Ringing, was an experience I didn't expect when signing up. ALOT of good history and facts. The staff was great but Deb and Jeff really provided an excellent experience for my time in the tower. If you're in the tower at 12pm you get another treat as the giant ANZAC bell chimes it's daily song.

Awesome looking building in the heart of the city. Best time to come is noon on a Thursday or 10:30am on a Sunday to see the bellringers in action. Views from the top are really good. The staff working here were all lovely.

We had such a lovely time at Elizabeth Quay today. The kids first had fun at the Island Playground, exploring, climbing, and playing to their hearts’ content. After that, they cooled off and splashed around at the Water Playground, which was the perfect way to enjoy the warm day. We then took a nice stroll along the quay, soaking in the beautiful city skyline and peaceful river views. It was such a refreshing outing – full of fun for the kids and relaxation for us.

A stunning waterfront development on Perths Swan River this quay is encased by bars, restaurants and apartments. It’s not overly large but does give a nice backdrop to the city skyline. Nice just to sit and people watch or to enjoy a drink or too. Nicely done.

It is highly recommended to visit Elizabeth Quay in the late afternoon when the orange sunlight reflects beautifully off the glass buildings, and also at night when the city lights illuminate the skyline. The view is stunning. There are many food stalls, and I can relax while enjoying the evening atmosphere by the edge of the Swan River.

This place is a haven for personal relaxation, offering a sense of calm and tranquility that truly helps me unwind. With its stunning and serene scenery, it's a perfect backdrop for quiet reflection. For those who enjoy being active outdoors, it's well-suited for running, biking, or just a gentle walk. Do note that most shops and restaurants in the area close their doors around 6 PM.

Lovely Quayside. Modern and clean. Several coffee shops, restaurants and bars. All good quality with extensive menus. Also come here to book tickets to Rottnest island and fabulous day out to a beautiful island with the cutest animal the Quokka. All outlets on the pier open early about 7.30/8.00am. high recommended for a relaxing beverage either a cold beer or a wide selection of beers

Beautiful waterfront. Quite a few restaurants and cafes. Still some areas under development but worth a visit. Lovely walking track and bridge along the water

Elizabeth Quay is a scenic harbourfront with modern office towers, dining spots, and plenty of space for a leisurely walk. From here, you can catch the ferry to South Perth in just 10 minutes, making it a great half-day experience when combined with a riverside stroll or meal. Walking across the Elizabeth Quay Bridge and then hopping on the ferry offers some of the best views of the city and river. The ideal times to visit are early morning before lunch or in the late afternoon towards dinner. Do note the area is open and unsheltered, so it can feel quite hot during the day.

Beautifully maintained parklands. Just watch out for kookaburras who swoop to snatch your food!! Please don’t feed them.

Simple, elegant, obelisk-style cenotaph in an expanse of lawn.

Fallen Horse soldiers memorial tribute for World War I You have to admire the courage and intestinal fortitude it took for those young men to leave home travel by ship and fight for King and Country... Not only did they fight they fought and accounted for themselves with distinction and honour...

A monument to the fallen soldiers in the First World War (1914-1919)

Lovely simple but poignant memorial in a beautiful setting with a Lone Pine memorial close by ... needs a memorial from The Nek to complete the set given the 10th LH were not at Lone Pine but were at The Nek

Restoration work being done by Colgan Industry.

Nice memorial lest we forget

Kings Park and Botanic Garden is a vast park in Perth with an adjoining botanical garden. I visited Perth mainly to see the wildflowers in spring, which are famous here. During my three days in Perth, I came to Kings Park all three days. Although the weather wasn’t great for the first two days, the final day was sunny and bright, and I was able to see many plants shining beautifully in the sunlight. The park is very large, and walking around the entire area requires some stamina, but the Botanic Garden section is a comfortable size to explore on foot. I realized that many of the “wildflowers” here are actually well-maintained and cultivated under the management of the garden — not truly wild in the sense of untouched nature. It was a bit unexpected, but I appreciated the care and effort put into preserving and showcasing so many native plants in one place. Since the park sits on a hill, the view of the city is also beautiful. It’s a relaxing place for both tourists and locals alike. You can easily reach Kings Park by taking the free Perth BLUE CAT bus, which is very convenient for visitors since the regular bus system requires a transport card or exact cash.

Amazing old trees with many different varieties and every corner well maintained. Very long track all around with lovely view points on the city and south perth. Lots of historic monuments with descriptions, even for many trees! Like the huge Eucalyptus tree planted by the Queen 75 yrs ago! It's a huge magnificent one with a trunk of I guess more than +1500mm of diameter. I recommend having a walk through this lovely park.

This place is a blessing in Perth. So close to the city and extremely accessible. Would be a great day out for a picnic or a nice stroll. Plenty of parking or take a free public transport from the city. Enjoy the native flora and fauna while you have your picnic or social catch up in the park or one of the restaurants.

We walked around the park for 4 hours and still didn't cover half of it. The look outs, tree top walk, the gardens, the walks are all amazing. Perth really has outdone itself and this place is definitely a gift to the locals and visitors.

A must visit when in Perth, with a hilltop view of the city and nice walks along the trails. A couple of highlights include the glass bridge, the memorial and the water gardens. There’s also a fancy cafe serving delicious food and iced coffee and a gift shop and information center, which is a good place to cool down after walking the trails.

King Park is huge! The botanical garden is organized well, showing the plant life sorted by the different areas of Western Australia. It is amazing that the botanical garden is so big and well maintained. Be aware there is a lot of walking and some steep hills and areas in the park. Be sure to landmark your car or exit though, it easy to lose your bearings.

It’s a well known park with lots of flowers and biodiversity. It’s quite popular with families and couples and felt relatively safe when I went. It was the perfect picnic spot and a great place to watch the sunset. However, this time of year there were a lot of flies and be careful of the magpies and ducks trying to steal food! :D

A beautiful stretch of coastline , grass picnic areas , bbq’s , cafes , playgrounds , the beach it self I have been going to sick I was 5 , good memories!! Just did sunset coastal run here , so much fun !!

One of the best beaches in the world I would say. Beautiful, Summer or Winter

Fantastic area for family catchup. Play ground for small kids on perfect grassed area under shady trees. Showers and modern toilets next to cafe right at beach edge. Carpark is small along the street but large one at the north end of the park.

It’s a really nice and long beach. There are amenities throughout the beach, including toilets, showers and some bars / restaurants. The beach is clean, the sand is white and feels very soft. Absolutely recommend this gem.

Mullaloo beach is one of the cozy beaches Perth can boast of, with a serene atmosphere! I’m a beach lover and Mullaloo beach is my go-to beach any day ☺️☺️

This is the best beaches at Perth, Western Australia according to my opinion. This beach offers plenty of space to place and a crystal clear water that makes me imagening the beaches at Maldive. I highly recommend this beach for beach lovers, I DEFINITLY WILL COME BACK TO THIS BRILLIANT AMAZING CLEAR BEACH Best time to visit : November to April where the sea temperature is warm enough for swimming

Lovely and peaceful place to relax and enjoy nature. It’s not too crowded, so you can easily find a quiet spot to sit and enjoy the beautiful sea view. The beach is clean, calm, and perfect for spending time with friends or family. You can go for a swim, try surfing in the waves, or simply take a walk along the soft sand. There are showers and changing areas available, which makes it easy to freshen up after swimming. The area also has nice trails for hiking and cycling. What makes Mullaloo Beach even better is that it’s away from the noise of traffic It’s a great place to relax, have fun, and forget about the rush of daily life.

This cave is on Yanchep National Park grounds and is easily accessible. However, I believe they lock the gates to the parking area by 4pm. There are a couple picnic tables and a toilet block available. There is a small entrance with a booth for a tour guide/ranger. Also there are a few informational poster boards. The Rangers booth does not sell tickets. You can purchase tickets at The McNess (up to 15 minutes before tour) house on Yanchep grounds or purchase online (up to 2 hours before tour). The entrance descending into the cave is not too narrow or steep. As well as the few brief low ceilings were not that difficult to pass through. The tour guide was lovely and very informative. She did inform us that you could take photos but videos were prohibited. The stalactites & stalagmites were beautiful and the cave areas were well lit enough to enhance the features. We took a bag with water bottles, however we were informed no food or drink allowed. Plain water was permitted. The tour was not very long, we observed a 35 minute tour. Enjoy the beautiful natural formed calcite🌟

Crystal Cave at Yanchep National Park offers a captivating underground experience. The guided tours, which last about 45 minutes, provide fascinating insights into the cave's history, geology, and the unique ecosystem. Visitors can expect to see a variety of natural cave formations, including stalagmites, helictites, columns, and shawls. The cave is well-maintained, featuring new stairs and handrails for safer entry and exit. Inside, the temperature remains consistently cool, providing a welcome relief on hot days. While there are some steep steps and low sections where taller individuals may need to duck, the cave is generally accessible for those with a reasonable level of fitness. Please note that a park entry fee is required in addition to the ticket for the cave tour.

Worth doing, the cave isn't as impressive as anything down south but still quite large. The tour guide was friendly and informative, the waiting area is less than ideal on a hot day so hopefully that's something that can be improved in the future.

It was a lovely experience, but it’s a little overpriced where they charge you. Typical Australian prices costs around every corner.. the tour guild who took us into cave was very knowledgeable and accommodating for all the guests. I would recommend the crystal cave but be aware that there’s only certain times that they open and you need to book a ticket prior to entry which is obtained from the visitor Centre. Also tickets are limited to the amount of people that can enter the cave. Apparently you can book tickets online so to avoid disappointment I would suggest doing that or else you have to wait until the next session. It is worthwhile stopping at the pub the Yanchep inn for lunch or a drink. Would highly recommend going.

Cabaret cave is a beautiful space decorated with lights while still allowing you to see the natural beauty of the cave.

There are steps into the cave. Normal walking shoes are fine. For a 40-45 min slow walk in the cave that isn’t too deep, you probably do not need a backpack with water and snack supplies. It’s best to walk light, with just your mobile phones. Only water is allowed by the way, no sweet drinks. Taller people may have to bend more to get through some spaces, but then they can do it in 1-2 minutes. There are several places where you’ll need to bend or crawl if you are very, very tall. Being short (158cm) in my case, was an advantage because I could walk through most of the time, just slightly hunching over. Lighting made the experience less authentic, wish they’d make it natural in some spaces. I’ve walked through authentic ones where it was pitch black with zero unnatural interference. I wish the Yanchep Crystal Cave would be more natural, void of artificial lightings. Our tour guide had a great sense of humour and of course she was knowledgeable. Children loved it the most, from my observation. They saw things that we missed, and created light hearted moments every now and then. There are several caves here, but they appeared to be locked at the entrance. The parks are pristine, but be forewarned of roo poo almost everywhere. There’s an inn you can stay at, and camping grounds too. As you explore, you’ll find bbq areas outside the cave, great for picnics.

This was a very different kind of experience. This place allows us to explore limestone cave in depth.
