Stunning area for bird life. There are a couple of bird hides to use, a path the whole way around and a cycle path part way around. To do a run / walk door to door around the lake is about 8km and definitely worth it!

Beautiful and serene and set amongst lush trees, come for a relaxing stroll through this tranquil setting.

Herdsmen lake is a great place to go running and give a really beautiful view of Perth at sunrise. It also is home to a lot of Perth's wildlife birds however it is home to one of Australia's poisonous snakes - so it is something that I would be careful about walking in the peak of the day and walking through the grass. The walk around the lake is about 9.5 km and also takes you passed the only castle in Perth.

If you want a serious walk (12kms) and a view of migratory birdlife then Herdsman Lake is for you. Originally connected to Lake Monger the whole area was a wetland paradise in pre-colonial times.

Great place to take a walk or run with beautiful views of the lake and of wild life animals (ducks and swans and their babies too!)
