  • The Bridges Walk is a popular 10-kilometre circuit that loops across the Narrows and Causeway Bridges, following the Swan River and offering spectacular city views.
  • Suitable for walkers, runners and cyclists, the Bridges Walk provides a relatively flat route that caters to a wide range of fitness levels.
  • The DNA Tower in Kings Park features 101 spiral steps inspired by the shape of a DNA molecule, rewarding visitors with panoramic views across Perth, the Swan River and surrounding bushland.
  • Kings Park is one of the world's largest inner-city parks, offering kilometres of walking trails, bushland and recreational opportunities.
  • Whitfords Nodes in Hillarys is one of Australia's largest free outdoor ninja and obstacle courses, featuring a range of challenges designed to test strength, balance, coordination and agility.
  • Developed by the City of Joondalup, Whitfords Nodes encourages people of all ages and abilities to enjoy active, outdoor recreation in a fun and accessible environment.
  • Together, these destinations showcase Perth's unique ability to combine fitness, nature and iconic scenery, making it easy for locals and visitors alike to stay active outdoors.
