Perth Hills Armadale

Just 40 minutes from Perth, the Perth Hills Armadale region is your ideal escape—nestled at the base of the Darling Scarp, this pocket of natural charm combines scenic bushland with relaxed country flair and is perfect for a memorable day out.

 Begin your morning with a peaceful stroll through Araluen Botanic Park, where tranquil paths weave through manicured gardens and native bushland year-round. In spring, vibrant tulips and wildflowers paint the landscape with colour. For the adventurous, the climb up Wungong Gorge rewards you with sweeping views and serene picnics or BBQ spots at the summit.

 Animal lovers shouldn’t miss the Armadale Reptile & Wildlife Centre, home to over 70 native Australian species—from snakes and geckos to kangaroos and wombats. It’s a hands-on, family-friendly stop where all ages can connect with wildlife.

 In the afternoon, explore the region’s relaxed farm-café culture. 11Acre Farm is a countryside favourite—offering homemade goodies and fresh coffee in a paddock-side setting where kids can run free while you unwind with a cuppa. A short drive away, Willow Springs is another gem, where you can wander through the orchards, browse for seasonal produce, and enjoy locally made sweets and coffee at the Flower Garden Cakery van. It’s a welcoming space with rustic charm and a focus on simple, wholesome experiences.

 If your day out lands on a weekend, don’t miss the local markets or community events, where live music, artisan stalls, and warm local vibes bring the town centres to life.

 From bush walking to wildlife spotting and farm-gate experiences, Perth Hills Armadale offers a refreshing blend of adventure and relaxation. Whether you’re chasing scenic trails, meeting native animals, or enjoying a scenic walking trail, this region is the go-to for a rejuvenating day trip.
