Sir James Mitchell Park

Sir James Mitchell Park is a large riverside public park on the South Perth Foreshore along the Swan River, directly opposite the Perth central business district. Stretching for several kilometres, it is notable for its expansive lawns, shared walking and cycling paths, and panoramic views of the Perth skyline and Swan River. The park is a major recreational and events space for the City of South Perth.

Visitors can expect a wide, open foreshore reserve with manicured lawns, mature trees, and paved shared paths for walking, jogging and cycling along the Swan River. The park offers uninterrupted views across the river to Perth city, Elizabeth Quay and Kings Park. Areas include picnic lawns, barbecue spots, playgrounds, public art, and jetties including Mends Street Jetty. The setting is flat, open and exposed, suitable for leisurely strolls, picnics and photography.
