Kings Park Bushland
Two thirds of Kings Park is protected as managed bushland and provides an important haven for visitors and native biodiversity.
There are a series of walking tracks and designated pedestrian/cycle paths through the Kings Park bushland that allow visitors the chance to appreciate Kings Park's unique flora, fauna and fungi.
For those seeking an interpretive walking experience, we recommend the Bushland Nature Trail which offers unique encounters with WA's biodiversity or the longer Law Walk which provides stunning river views and an insight into the Mount Eliza escarpment.
