10 Free Or Cheap Activities For The Kids These School Holidays
"Since being redeveloped a couple of years ago the Scarborough Beach foreshore precinct has become an absolute hot spot for locals and visitors alike. And it’s jam packed with fun and free activities to keep the tiny ones going all day. Of course there’s the beach (and with a bit of swell some great surfing), but you’ve also got the huge skate bowl, quarter basketball court, mini rock climbing wall, a huge kids Whale Playground and the grassy knoll perfect for watching all the action go down."

The Best Places to Watch a Sunset in Perth
"Having arguably the best views over the Swan Coastal Plain and the city below, Zig zag Scenic Drive in Gooseberry hill should be on the top of your list of places to visit. Whilst driving down the one-way street, you have the option of stopping at the carparks at the very top. However, if you’re looking for something a little more secluded, there are plenty of informal bays on your way down the scenic route you can pull in to – just remember that it is a one way street, so if there aren’t any empty spots you will have to drive down and back up around the back."

Attractions | Experience Perth Hills
"Located in Gooseberry Hill National Park and you are rewarded with spectacular views over Perth. Planes rise from the airport below and on a clear day you can see as far as the Indian Ocean. The Zig Zag was created as part of a series of railway switching points where trains reversed direction in order to climb the steep 1 in 30 grade of the Darling Range."

"The Zig Zag Scenic Route is where you’ll see the best of the Perth Hills. While traversing through bushland, you’ll be able to see the skyscrapers of the city and eventually the blue sea. The spectacular views offered here represent all I love about Perth; that it’s a city that has worked with nature, rather than obliterated nature."
