Lake Claremont Nature Playground

If you live on this side of Perth and have a toddler, you probably already know about this spot — and if you don’t, you’re missing out. The playground sits right alongside Lake Claremont with big shady trees overhead and enough nature-based stuff to keep preschoolers genuinely busy, not just running in circles. There’s a water feature, a teepee, a little car, a treehouse-style structure — it’s low-key but kids this age absolutely love it. Pack a lunch because the BBQs and picnic tables make it worth staying a few hours, and the flat path around the lake is great for wobbly scooter riders who aren’t ready for hills yet. Quiet neighbourhood, close to bush trails, no noise or chaos — honestly one of the more underrated family spots in Claremont.
