Starting from the car park off Onslow Road, Shenton Park, the Karda Bidi trail (distinguished by the Monitor Lizard emblem on its directional markers) takes you along the picturesque banks of the Swan River. This captivating walking trail offers a fairly level terrain, perfect for a leisurely stroll lasting a few hours, allowing ample time to soak in the mesmerizing views of the Swan River, known as Derbal Yarrigan. Along the way, discover the rich history of the area, from the settlers to the indigenous Noongar people, through QR codes on interpretive signage. While traversing this scenic route, take advantage of the nearby cafes to quench your thirst or grab a bite to eat. Keep in mind that certain sections of the trail feature stairs and sandy paths along the riverbank, necessitating diversion for bikes and wheelchairs. Remember to protect yourself from the Perth sun by wearing a hat and sunscreen, especially during hot weather. Let us begin by acknowledging the Whadjuk people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
