Walking Melville: the local loops
Melville Beach Road Foreshore Path — Enjoy views of the Swan River, passing by sandy beaches and grassy areas. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. Benches and shade appear often enough for a slow dog.
Point Walter Reserve Loop — A scenic loop around the reserve with river views, a jetty, and picnic spots. Off-lead applies in the signed sections; carry the lead anyway. Benches and shade appear often enough for a slow dog.
Deep Water Point Reserve Path — A paved path along the river's edge with playgrounds and cafes nearby. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. A coffee stop is never far on the way back.
