Bold Park

Who would have thought that there is an impressively diverse park in the middle of City Beach, just a short 20-minute drive from Perth CBD? Well, here’s Bold Park for you! With over 1000 native and non-native species of flora, fauna and fungi to be found within the park boundaries, it’s truly impressive and is home to a number of regionally significant species. You might even spot some wildlife including birds, reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates there as well. Have a look for yourself here.

It’s a 1.3km walk full of banksias, eucalyptus trees, orchids and native wildflowers including the Western Australian emblem, the red and green kangaroo paw (a real must-see)!
