Yagan's Genunny Circuit

Starting from Wireless Hill southern car park, Ardross, this circuit walk gives you a quick tour of Wireless Hill Park via the Yagan's Genunny Track. A slice of nature amongst the concrete, this park has heaps to offer. From a museum to dedicated walking tracks full of wildflowers and interpretive signs, this park is a great little escape for 'Perthies'. This particular track has interpretive signage about the indigenous history, flora and fauna. Speaking of, you can come across various species of orchids along with some shingleback lizards (bobtail skinks) enjoying the sun. There are BBQs and toilets. Dogs are allowed on leash. Watch out for snakes. Let us begin by acknowledging the Beeliar Nyoongar people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
