The Lark Hill Nature Trail offers a 3.5km loop through quiet bushland in Port Kennedy just 50 minutes from Perth. This easy trail begins at the passive area between the Rugby League and Softball complexes, making it a perfect option for those seeking fresh air during sports training sessions.

As you walk, you'll be serenaded by birdsong and surrounded by native coastal vegetation, with the peacefulness of the trail making it ideal for hiking, running, or a leisurely stroll. It's generally uncrowded, so you can enjoy the tranquillity without the crowds.

Climb to the Homestead at the top of the hill for sweeping views over the Lark Hill Sports Complex and the surrounding horse training track. Open year-round and welcoming to dogs on leashes, the trail is suitable for families, solo walkers, and nature lovers wanting a quick nature fix.
