Starting from the car park next to the Fremantle Sailing Club off Marine Terrace, South Fremantle, this walk leads to CY O'Connor Beach in North Coogee and back. This beautiful walk takes you down the coast from the South Fremantle Dog Beach, through the South Beach Recreation Reserve and the CY O'Connor Reserve, ending at CY O'Connor Beach near the old power station in North Coogee. South Beach is a family-friendly beach with superb views of the Rottnest, Carnac, and Garden islands. The spacious beach is separated into two distinct areas. The north section is dog-friendly and also has access to grassy areas around it. The beach is lined with small sand dunes leading to landscaped parkland, walk and bike trails, bathing facilities, parking, barbecues, a children's playground and a great cafe. South Beach is renowned for its exceptional sunsets. As you continue the walk past South Beach, you'll come across CY O'Connor Beach. CY O'Connor Beach includes the SS Wyola steam tug shipwreck off the coast and a designated dog beach. There are two reserves along CY O'Connor Beach. The northern reserve features a fantastic SS Wyola inspired playground. Access to the dog beach is located right in front of the playground area. Almost all of the facilities are at McTaggart Cove, the southern end of the beach. Enjoy a swim followed by a picnic or barbecue at the grassy reserve afterwards. The flat shared-use path is great for walking, jogging and cycling, and is also suitable for wheelchairs. There are multiple cafes along the way where you can enjoy a coffee or a meal overlooking the ocean. Take a leisurely stroll along the white sandy shores at the end of your walk, and enjoy a magical sunset over the Indian Ocean. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.

Starting from the car park on Woodgate Hill Road, Kyeema, this walk takes you on a circuit around Kyeema Con­ser­va­tion Park via the Mulurus Hike. Locat­ed on the Fleurieu Penin­su­la, Kyeema Con­ser­va­tion Park covers over 347 hectares of dense native vegetation, with an over­storey of main­ly messmate stringybark, with some pink gum and cup gum, towering over a thick and diverse understorey. The park provides habi­tat for ani­mals such as south­ern brown bandi­coots, swamp rats, echidnas and west­ern grey kan­ga­roos, and is a haven for bird­watch­ers, home to over 80 bird species, includ­ing White's thrush, beautiful firetail and the chest­nut-rumped heath­wren. The area was once mined for alluvial gold for several years, but was abandoned in 1890 due to low yield. A few years later, some of the land was cleared for pine plantations before being used as a labour prison reserve and a campground. Following the Ash Wednesday bushfires in 1983, the Friends of Kyeema Conservation Park started to revegetate cleared areas of the park. This moderately challenging loop walk winds through cup gum wood­land, bushland scrub and dense, fern-filled gullies, providing walkers with the opportunity to spot some of the park's diverse birdlife along the way, as well as enjoy stunning displays of wild­flow­ers in spring. This loop consists of narrow walking trails and fire tracks, with uneven natural surfaces, compacted natural surfaces and short steep hills, suitable for moderate fitness levels. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
