Galup Trail (formerly Lake Monger)

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Galup Trail is a flat, shared path that forms a loop around Lake Monger (Galup), connecting wetlands with open water views, and pockets of urban bushland close to central Perth. The mostly sealed surface and gentle grades make it popular for walking, running, and cycling, with plenty of spots to pause for birdlife and skyline views. At roughly 3.5 kilometres, it’s an easy, accessible circuit that highlights the lake’s importance as both a wildlife habitat and a well-used city green space.

View of Perth Skyline

Highlight • Viewpoint

This spot offers one of the clearest views of the Perth CBD, with the skyline rising beyond the open water and wetlands. The contrast between the urban high-rises and the calm lake, often dotted with birdlife, makes it a popular photo stop along the route. It’s especially beautiful in the late afternoon, when the city reflects soft light across the water.
