Kings Park & Botanic Gardens

Ranged along the ridge of Mount Moira, this large and lush park is the perfect place to escape the city and enjoy a panorama of the Swan River and surrounds. Multiple paths wind through gardens showcasing flora from different regions of WA including a boab tree brought down on the back of a truck from the Kimberly. The striking War Memorial and Flame of Remembrance are also here. It's a hot, uphill, 2-km walk from downtown, but its northern boundary at Kings Park Rd is within the Free Transit Zone. The handiest bus is the Green CAT, M-F only, to Stop 16. The Red CAT (7 days) also runs nearby, use Stop 19 on Ord Street.

Getting there
2 km west of the CBD, follow St George's Terrace onto Malcolm St
