Railway Reserves Heritage Trail (Perth Hills)


One of TrailsWA's Top Trails, the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail's main loop provides a 41 kilometre walk or cycle through the Perth Hills. Starting at multiple points, the trail interprets the rail heritage of the area through public art and even playgrounds with a railway theme. Passing through lovely bushland and the waterfalls of John Forrest National Park, this is a lovely cycling loop that is at its best in late Winter/early Spring
