Greenmount National Park Park

Greenmount National Park is a small protected area on the Darling Scarp in Western Australia, conserving remnant native forest and the steep escarpment that overlooks the Swan Coastal Plain. It is valued locally for short walks, lookouts and native vegetation.

Trails and picnic areas provide access to viewpoints across the coastal plain, and tracks pass through jarrah and marri woodland typical of the region. The park is used for day visits rather than extended backcountry trips and forms part of a chain of reserves on the scarp.

The park lies on the eastern edge of the Perth metropolitan area along the Great Eastern Highway corridor, near the suburb of Greenmount and the towns that flank the scarp. It is readily reached from Perth for short recreational outings.

• Escarpment and views: Located on the Darling Scarp east of the Perth metropolitan area, offering escarpment lookouts and short nature walks through remnant native forest.

Greenmount National Park is reachable from Perth via Great Eastern Highway and local access roads; it is a short drive from suburban centres. Check local maps for carpark locations and trailheads.

• Best hiked in late spring or autumn to avoid summer heat and winter rains.
• Check track conditions with local ranger offices before attempting multi-day hikes.
• There are few services inside the park - plan water and resupply accordingly.
