Yalbunullup mountain bike trails open in Perth's northern suburbs

Yellagonga Regional Park in Perth's northern suburbs has a new $4.57 million urban mountain bike trail network along the western banks of Lake Joondalup.

The seven-kilometre-long Yalbunullup trail network forms part of a newly developed, family-friendly area in the northern end of Yellagonga.

This area also features a pavilion, lakeside lookout, bike racks, water fountains, interpretive signage, pathways, landscaping, toilets, and a 100-vehicle carpark, making it more accessible for families seeking outdoor fun this summer.

Yalbunullup was chosen as the trail's name in consultation with Traditional Owners to reflect the traditional Noongar name for the area.

Having created about 100 jobs during the construction, the project was delivered by several local contractors and was overseen by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.
