Hikes near Perth

Perth's walking is almost all in one direction: east, up the Darling Scarp, where the coastal plain ends and the jarrah forest starts. John Forrest National Park alone accounts for five of the seventeen tracks here and sits about twenty minutes from the eastern suburbs, with Statham's Quarry and the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail closer still. Serpentine and Lane Poole Reserve are the drive-further options to the south-east, and Yanchep is the one that goes north instead. It skews short and gentle — eight of the seventeen are family-friendly — with Eagle View in John Forrest the outlier at 12.3 km and an expert grade. Everything below is sorted by distance from the CBD.
