Perth city in Western Australia was established in 1829 by Captain James Stirling. Perth lies between the Indian Ocean and the low coastal escarpment of which goes by the name of Darling Range. The Australian continent is varied as far as the topography of the country is concerned and makes for delightful sightseeing. You will enjoy being in this beautiful city by Swan River. One of the "must see", in Perth is Walyunga National Park. In Walyunga National Park, you will enjoy the beautiful greenery of eucalyptus forest. Enjoy the sights of Swan River whose meandering course has carved out several pools out of the granite rock. These calm and cool pools are just right for swimming and boating. And if you visit the place after the winter rains, you can indulge in white water rafting. This park will interest you because of another feature, the park has within its vicinity, the largest aboriginal settlements. This area has been their home for at least last 6000 years as the soil erosion has exposed large number of bones and stone tools used by those early settlers. A careful investigation of the settlements will offer you many hours of intelligent delights. Walyunga National Park has aboriginal heritage trail which goes along the banks of the river. Go trekking through other trails that run amidst the woodland.
