Yanchep National Park

Experience a true Aussie environment in a beautiful national park.Whether you‘re looking for a day trip near Perth or a quick stop on your journey to the Pinnacles or further north, Yanchep National Park offers a variety of experiences just 45 minutes north of Perth city.

See Australian plants and animals, including kangaroos and koalas, in a natural setting. Immerse yourself in a range of exciting tours, Aboriginal culture, heritage-listed buildings, limestone caves, wildflowers (when in season) and wetlands. Bring the family and cook up your favourite meal on a free gas barbecue or let someone else serve you at Chocolate Drops tearooms or the historic Yanchep Inn (with lakeview beer garden). Then stretch your legs on one of the nine walk trails, or take a swing on the nine-hole golf course.

Visit McNess House Visitor Centre for tour information and bookings, and see a stunning range of Australian gifts and handicrafts.

For a completely unique experience, why not book your special occasion at Cabaret Cave – Australia’s only purpose-modified function cave for hire.

Or take advantage of Yanchep Inn’s new accommodation and get an after-dark view of some of Australia’s amazing fauna. Your only distraction from the breathtaking sunsets over Loch McNess will be the countless kangaroos and waterbirds.
