Wetlands

The iconic Yellagonga Regional Park is a 13-kilometre-long chain of interconnected natural wetlands, located within the Cities of Joondalup and Wanneroo. Included in Yellagonga Regional Park are Lake Joondalup, Beenyup Swamp, Walluburnup Swamp and Lake Goollelal. The wetlands of Yellagonga Regional Park represent some of the last remaining freshwater systems in the Perth metropolitan area.

There are also numerous constructed lakes (artificial wetlands) within the City’s boundaries.
