Neil Hawkins Park

Highlight • Rest Area

Neil Hawkins Park is a great place for everyone to enjoy. It's wheelchair-accessible, has a kids' playground, and lots of amenities, including a bike repair station, ping-pong tables, restrooms, and more. There are also open fields to play in with mowed grass and bordering eucalyptus trees to lie in the shade under.

Observation Tower

Highlight • Monument

This observation tower is built over a marshy woodland, about one story above ground, to provide an overhead view of any wildlife and their home below. Be careful, as there are snakes in this area, it's their natural habitat. Just a few meters away is Studmaster Park, with benches, picnic benches, barbecues, and a playground.

Lake Joondalup

Highlight • Lake

Lake Joondalup sits within the Yellagonga Regional Park. Lake Joondalup Circuit is a trail that encircles the lake and is great for a long run, walk, or ride. The full loop spans 16 kilometers, as this is the largest lake in the Perth metro area. While visiting the lake, you can catch a glimpse of Western Grey Kangaroos, quendas, Southwestern snake-necked turtles, or some of the 120 different species of birds that call this lake home.

Once again, a wonderful good evening!

It's cold here! Sunny, but pretty cool, including a strong wind! :-)

Just a side note! After breakfast, I headed to the train station and drove to Joondalup! I love taking the train! Just sitting, looking out the window and planning the next tours in my head! :-))
