Perth is Western Australia’s capital, a glimmering gem of a city with vibrant beaches, historic buildings, and a stunning downtown filled with restaurants, shops, and plenty of exciting places to pass an afternoon. It also makes the perfect place to kick off an epic road trip across Western Australia.
Are you ready to explore the natural wonders of Western Australia? Hire a campervan or motorhome in Perth and explore rugged coastlines, stunning national parks, and winding rivers–all from the comfort of your campervan or motorhome.
As you venture from Perth in your campervan or motorhome rental, you’ll find abundant unspoiled Australian wilderness. Several stunning national parks surround Perth, you’ll have trouble choosing just a few to visit.
Begin your journey with a visit to the famous Pinnacles Desert, located in Nambung National Park. Hike through the otherworldly limestone pillars that rise out of rolling white dunes. Or, explore the lush flora and fauna that surrounds the beach.
Next, point your campervan or motorhome hire towards Yanchep National Park. Learn about Aboriginal culture as you walk along the winding trails that lead through native bushlands and picturesque wetlands. You’ll see kangaroos, koalas, and other stunning wildlife along your walk.
Head west to Serpentine National Park. try your hand on one of the challenging hikes that lead to magnificent panoramic views atop Mount Cooke. Or, dive into Serpentine Falls where you can swim, relax, and–if you’re lucky–spot some of the park's native inhabitants. If you’re feeling adventurous, get your heart pumping on any mountain biking trails leading through the park.
If you’re looking to enjoy a glittering coastline, tranquil lakes, and winding rivers, look no further than Perth. With your motorhome or campervan rental, you can easily become immersed in the incredible natural beauty that surrounds Perth.
Of course, no campervan trip to Perth is complete without a visit to the coast. Rugged cliffs and hidden coves characterize the beaches of Cottesloe, Scarborough, and Trigg. Surf or sunbathe on the soft sands or explore the delights of these quaint coastal towns.
If you prefer freshwater, drive your campervan or motorhome hire to Lake Leschenaultia. This huge freshwater lake is surrounded by vibrant wetlands. It has several walking and cycling trails for you to explore and it’s rich in exotic wildlife.
For the ultimate Perth experience, take a trip down the Canning River on a canoe or kayak. While you can adventure through Perth via the river, drive your campervan or motorhome hire east, outside of Perth, to experience the incredible serenity of the Canning River.
Having a safe place to park your campervan or motorhome rental is essential to ensure your campervan holiday is perfect. As you begin to plan your unforgettable campervan road trip, be sure to reserve accommodations that can meet the needs of your campervan or motorhome hire.
Here are a few campsites you might consider checking out as you prepare for your campervan adventure from Perth: Lake Leschenaultia Camp Site, Pinjarrah Holiday Park, and Henry White Oval Campground
