An easy and beautiful walk by the river for a Saturday morning!
This is a slightly longer variation on our Riverside Gardens walk. A brisk start to the day sees us heading to the Baigup Wetlands through to the Maylands Peninsula across the river to Kuljak Island before returning back to the start.
Finish off with my favourite café on the river, The Oarhouse is awesome!
Just about 2.5 hours of walking plus coffee afterwards.
Difficulty: The long range forecast suggests a chilly but sunny day with temperatures from 12°C when we set off to 16°C when we sit down for a coffee. There are no mountains to climb on this walk along the Swan River. Expect a spirited walking pace of about 5.5 - 6km/h. The tracks are level and paved most of the way with a few compacted dirt paths. The distance and pace will suit regular walkers.
Where?: MeetUp exactly at the pin drop by clicking on the map.
Parking: There is plenty of parking near the meeting point.
What to bring: Water, good walking shoes, hat & sunscreen and a chair would be good.
Toilets: At the Oarhouse Café and possibly the Kiln Café.
Cafè: The Oarhouse has a well deserved reputation for its muffins and other gastronomic delights and the coffee is the best in this area. This is a very popular café, we might need to take our own chairs so leave one in your car.
