Did you know that the base of Lesmurdie Falls is located in Forrestfield?
Located in the Lesmurdie Falls National Park, it is one of the more spectacular waterfalls on the Darling Range escarpment. There is a trail which starts at the top of the falls with a short walk to the viewing platform. For a longer walk, you can follow the trail to the base of the falls where the lush vegetation grows. This walk is particularly recommended in winter and spring when the rains swell Lesmurdie Brook which tumbles over the Darling Range Escarpment. A lookout allows you to view the falls and, on a clear day, the flat land of the coastal plain allows a clear view over Perth city and as far out to Rottnest Island on the western horizon. The trail is 2km long and facilities include BBQ Facilities, Car Park, Lookouts, Picnic Area, Public Toilet, Sheltered Area and Water Access Points.
