Yellagonga Regional Park

In the midst of Yellagonga’s suburban sprawl is a verdant haven known as Yellagonga Regional Park. From the north of the park all the way down to Cockburn, there is a continuous network of lakes, wetlands, and green spaces. Come with your family, come with your friends, and if you put a leash on Fido, you can even bring him with you! The tiniest of children can have fun at the playgrounds specifically designed for them. The history of this park encompasses a wide range of cultural traditions. The indigenous chief of the Mooro people, Yellagonga, is honored by the naming of this place. During their seasonal camp moves, they once made use of this region as a place to find refuge and food. It has a significant place in their Aboriginal Dreaming and holds a lot of cultural meaning for them. After the colonial settlers moved in, the area became home to market gardeners as well as wine growers. They were drawn to the area because of the availability of groundwater and the damp soils. As you travel across the park, be on the lookout for the many historical sites and ruins that date back to the time of the settlers.

Walking, riding, and admiring the natural scenery are just some of the activities that may be enjoyed here. Both Lake Joondalup and Lake Goollelal provide circuits that allow visitors to travel the whole circumference of the lakes. Be aware that these paths are shared by bicycles and pedestrians, so you need to pay attention to your surroundings at all times. If that doesn’t appeal to you, all you have to do is lay back on your picnic blanket and take in the sights and sounds of the natural world all around you.

The marsh areas are home to a large variety of birds and other animals. Great vantage spots might be found on a promenade or in an observation tower. Wrens, birds, freshwater turtles, and native water rats are all potential sightings if you keep your eyes open. There are also dugites and tiger snakes in the park; therefore, you should be cautious and avoid them.

It doesn’t matter what time of year you go; Yellagonga Regional Park is always a good time. We believe that you will love the combination of history, culture, and wildlife that is located on the outskirts of Perth.
