Bells Rapids is a well-known section of the Swan River in Walyunga National Park where the water flows over a series of large rocks to form fast-moving rapids. It's a popular stopping point for visitors with access to several walking trails, including the Bells Rapids River Walk and Goat Walk. It is also a key spectator location during the annual Avon Descent, when paddlers navigate the rapids as part of the race down the river.
