Heirisson Island: atrofda nima bor, qanday yetib borish va qachon borish · 2026
Cyclists crossing between East Perth and Victoria Park use the island as a quiet daily detour, trading highway traffic for footpaths shared with resident western grey kangaroos.
Heirisson Island forms an open wildlife sanctuary between city foreshores, shaped by river dredging and reclamation into a continuous reserve.
The reserve began as separate islets surrounded by shallow mudflats known to the Whadjuk Noongar as Matagarup. Whadjuk groups utilized these shallows as a seasonal river crossing point under agreements granted by the Beeloo. River dredging and reclamation merged the mudflats into a continuous island. Connected to East Perth and Victoria Park by the Causeway and Boorloo Bridge, the park carries foot and cycle traffic across Perth Water.
Davomini oqish
Past schemes envisioned turning the grounds into an extensive sporting complex, a caravan park, and an aircraft runway, but commercial development was abandoned. A public statue honours Aboriginal warrior Yagan, situated alongside open paddocks where introduced western grey kangaroos roam. Unbuilt concert amphitheatres and stalled sculpture gardens have left the interior largely undisturbed by heavy tourist facilities.
