    Tips

    March 22, 2026

    The Railway Reserves Heritage Trail follows a former rail line through the Perth Hills, with long, mostly level sections that are easy to walk or cycle. You’ll pass through forest, cuttings, and old railway features, including tunnels and timber bridges. Popular access points like Mundaring and Swan View have parking and basic facilities. Surfaces are generally compact gravel, but can be uneven in places. The Swan View Tunnel is a standout section, but bring a torch. Watch for cyclists, and carry water as some stretches have limited shade.
