King's Park perimeter with a bit extra, starting at Koorak Café (10km loop)
Koorak Cafe , 37 Kings Park Road, Kings Park, AUCome for a nice walk around King's Park but this time I'm throwing in a little extra surprise for the young at heart.
We begin by meeting outside Koorak Café on the northern side of King's Park.
We start this 10km loop by heading clockwise down Jacob's Ladder and up the Kakoda Track 😧. We follow the Cliff Walk, sky walk and Law Walk along the escarpment overlooking the Swan River. We then head along the western boundary before returning to the café. 😊 For those who never came on this walk a month ago I'm throwing in a little surprise for you, it was plenty of fun last time.
We should be back in 2 hours, let's relax over a refreshing sparking water, coffee and chat for those who can stay.
Where
Koorak Café, Kulunga Grove. (Click on map for the exact meeting point)
Parking
Plenty of free parking at the car park.
Distance
Approx a 10km loop with 206m elevation.
Difficulty
We should complete this walk in 2 hours. Mainly bitumen paths with only the Kokoda Track to increase the heart rate. Expect an easy walk but at a reasonable pace (5 to 6 km/h). Not a difficult task for my regular Saturday people.
What to bring
Water, good walking shoes, hat & sunscreen.
Café after the walk
We will share a chat, coffee and bite to eat at The Koorak Café after the walk. They have good coffee and something to eat.
Toilets
Near the café and several places along the walk.
