Bells Rapids Park
Upper Swan, Western Australia
Foot bridge for viewing beautiful river
One of the best place to visit in Perth.

The Bells Rapids walk trail is 5.5 km in total, but hikers can also complete the shorter 2.5km River Walk or the 3km Goat walk.
The car park is located at the end of Cathedral Avenue. The gravel road turns into a single lane, so slow down at this point. The car park is right beside the river with toilets.
Bells Rapids Walk Trail provides the choice of two scenic walks: the river walk and the goat walk. Both are dog-friendly, scenic trails that offer beautiful views of the rapids. Bells Rapids is well known as the best vantage point to watch the annual Avon Descent, a two-day 124 km river race from Northam to Bayswater. It is also a popular winter and early spring walk when the rapids are at their best. Families also enjoy visiting Bells Rapids for picnics on fine days.
