Lake Monger Reserve is well-known both amongst tourists and locals. From nature trails to playgrounds and BBQs, this reserve offers heaps of facilities & activities. The middle of the park is taken up with Lake Monger, a habitat for an abundance of local flora and fauna, making it a popular location to observe a wide selection of WA's beautiful birdlife. Black swans and many other water birds can be seen on the lake, thanks to the creation of a special breeding island. You can learn more about the birdlife of the area from the special interpretive displays along the way. Around the lake, there are boardwalks and lookouts which allow you to admire the picturesque landscape better. You can also view the Perth city skyline from one of the northern lookouts. There are multiple playgrounds around the lake, providing fun activities for kids of all ages. Shaded picnic areas, barbecues and toilets are located near the playgrounds, making for ideal spots to have a family picnic/BBQ. Lake Monger Reserve is a fantastic destination for a family walk in Perth, suitable for all ages and fitness levels. The lake is surrounded by spacious lawns and a shared-use sealed path, making it popular among locals who go walking, jogging and cycling at all times of the day. Lake Monger is also conveniently located near Leederville train station, which is perfect for public transport users.
