Meekatharra to Perth road trip: Distance, driving time & best stops
Attractions between Meekatharra and Perth: Bullsbrook and the Swan Valley
Not long after joining the Tonkin Highway, you’re in Perth’s outer suburbs. In Bullsbrook, you can get merrily wet at the Outback Splash water park – book tickets online – or visit the Berry Sweet Strawberry Farm.
The Meekatharra to Perth route then skims the edge of the Swan Valley wine region, cutting through Whiteman Park before heading into central Perth.
Great things to do in Perth include cooing at the gold pour at the Perth Mint, enjoying the majestic city views from Kings Park and hitting the surf at Scarborough Beach.
Activities worth pre-booking include the hop-on, hop-off bus, art and history-packed walking tours and the adventurous Vertigo experience above the Optus Stadium. The small bar and street art tours are also superb.
