YELLAGONGA REGIONAL PARK FEATURES AND FACILITIESHISTORYYellagonga Regional Park was named in 1990, in order to honour Yellagonga, the leader of the Mooro Nyungar people who inhabited the region north of the Swan River at the time of European settlement.
ENVIRONMENTThe Park incorporates wetlands, manicured parklands and mature woodland areas in a naturally, culturally, and recreationally significant setting. Yellagonga houses a chain of wetlands including Lake Joondalup, Beenyup and Walluburnup Swamps, Lake Goollelal and the surrounding parkland areas.
FACILITIESThe Park provides an ideal environment for a range of leisure and physical activity pursuits and a variety of facilities to cater for outdoor recreation including barbeques, picnic tables, viewing platforms and seating. It is very popular with walkers and cyclists, and provides an ample venue for many local community events. The Park offers a network of shared paths (for walking and cycling) and dedicated walking paths.
Yellagonga Regional Park is an ideal place for leisure and recreation and is easily accessible by walking, cycling and public transport. The Park is approximately 13km long and 1-1.5km wide, covering 1400 hectares.
Yellagonga Regional Park adjoins the City Centre of Joondalup. A short CAT Bus ride or a leisurely 5 minute walk from the Joondalup train station through the City centre and natural bushlands will lead you to the popular Neil Hawkins Park, an ideal starting point for a range of walking and cycling routes.
The Park is also within walking distance (less than 2km) from Currambine, Edgewater and Whitfords train stations, and Transperth operate many bus services providing direct and convenient access to the Park. Bus services stopping adjacent to the Park are listed in the table provided.
