Beelu National Park
Mundaring National Park was established and gazetted in 1995 as part of the Protecting Our Old Growth Forests policy of the state government. The park was renamed in 2008 as an acknowledgement of the traditional owners of the area. The word Beelu is derived from the Noongar word for river or stream. The Beelu were the original people of the area, whose district was bounded by the Helena, Swan and Canning Rivers.
The park contains an abundance of native flora including jarrah, marri, Zamia, bull Banksia, sheoak and grass tree.
Facilities
The park contains toilets, wood barbecues, picnic tables and a variety of hiking and mountain biking trails. An information centre, the Perth Hills National Parks Centre, is located within the park. A lookout is located at South Ledge, with a view over Mundaring Weir and Lake CY O'Connor. The largest oak tree in Western Australia is found in Fred Jacoby Park. Two campsites are available for use within the park.
