Lesmurdie Falls, located within Mundy Regional park, approximately 22km east of Perth, in the hills, is one of the most spectacular waterfalls around Perth. You can view this 50 meter waterfall from a number of a places within the park, approaching it from the top or the bottom.
We started our day with the Cascade trail – a centrally located, 300 meter trail. As we walked along, admiring many different cascades, we absorbed the sounds of nature – the gurgling of the flowing water, the cheerful chirping of the birds and crackling of the dry leaves under the feet. It was a bright sunny day but without the heat of summer.
After the lunch we walked to the top of the Falls, where there are a couple of viewing platforms.
Then we hiked down to the bottom of the Falls (2km return trail) to get the best view of the Falls. It was a picturesque trail, where we spotted lots of wildflowers and a kookaburra.
Lesmurdie Falls is a great place to go hiking, relax and enjoy nature. Spring is the ideal time to visit, when waterfall is flowing and wildflowers are blooming.
While we do not have dogs, I must mention that it is a dog friendly place.
What a wonderful day, full of impressions and exercise, it was!
