Lovely little place to swim, picnic, soak up some sun or walk around. Picnic tables, shade and parking are plenty. There's a great sealed path way going around the lake with wooden cabins so often you can walk into, sit and read some info or look out over the lake. We had our dog with us which was not allowed on the beach sand and had to stay on the lead.

Be amazed by this massive constuction surrounded by truly stunning country. Drive onto the dam wall, and survey the sheer size of this drinking water catchment area. There is a picnic area close by with tables, bbqs and toilets, positioned near a natural lake that attracts abundant bird life. It's worth drivin the 28kms of gravel road to reach this magic spot.
9. Mundaring Weir

In days gone by, Mundaring Weir would regularly overflow and many sightseers would make the 40 km (24 mile) trip from Perth to see it. Unhappily, this hasn't happened since 1996. The Mundaring Weir was completed in 1903 to supply water to be piped 700 km (435 miles) to the Eastern Goldfields. The construction of Mundaring Weir and the Goldfields Pipeline is an engineering achievement of epic proportions. The lake is named after C Y O'Connor, the chief engineer, who tragically took his own life. The Weir is located in bushland, with many wild birds and animals. It is well worth the trip.
