Timeline
17:40
Start at The William Street Bird for a pre-sunset drink. It is a short walk from the theatre and opens at 16:00, giving you plenty of time to settle in before the rush.
18:10
Walk 31 minutes west-southwest to Kings Park. Find a spot along the ridge of Mount Moira. The park is open all day, and this is the vantage point that looks back toward the city and the river.
19:25
Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The golden light begins around 18:50, painting the Swan River and the city skyline in warm tones. This is the moment the view is at its most dramatic.
20:10
Head back down and walk 11 minutes to The Brass Monkey Hotel. It is a large pub with a good selection of beers and wines, perfect for winding down after the evening chill sets in.
Local tip
The walk from the theatre to Kings Park is 31 minutes. Wear layers as it gets cooler on the ridge after sunset. The Brass Monkey Hotel is open until 22:00 on weekdays and 24:00 on weekends.
