Galup

Located in Wembley on the outskirts of Perth, Galup is an urban wetland. Visitors go here for walking trails that follow the perimeter of the lake and to observe the local aquatic environment within a city setting.

Getting There

The wetland is accessible from the Perth city centre via local bus services or by car. The journey typically takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes depending on traffic conditions.

Duration of Visit

Allow 1 to 2 hours to complete a relaxed walk around the lake and explore the surrounding paths.
