Kent Street Weir Park — Attraction in Wilson

For years I've kayaked up the Canning River from Riverton Canoe Launch. The river runs through about 5km of beautiful bushland, full of birdlife. The Kent Street Weir Park has a cafe at the Weir crossover bridge. In a bushland surround, good parking if you drive (Fern Road turn left, then turn left again on to Kent Street). The Cafe is dog friendly, and is a good source of basic cafe food and coffee. The cafe is a centre for the Park area with people coming from walking around the park, both sides of the Canning River. Running and Walking Clubs regularly use the Park. Also Canoe anf Kayaking launch points for either down stream to Riverton or up river, which is freshwater from the Weir. We as a family have numerous picnics at the Weir Park, BBQ facilities and good toiletts are near the cafe. It is also a turnaround point for the Castledare Miniature Railways every...

There is a big reserve park walking park not a playground park and the river. That's it boring if you ask me...

I wasn't sure if they were going to make this a dedicated dog park or not, but it seems it will stay as a dog park which is great! Such a huge area! Maybe they could perhaps separate into big & small dog area's (though this isn't an issue for me) some may even like some agility equipment for the dogs to use? One of the gate's to enter/exit doesn't actually have a latch so be careful here. It is also great having the children's playground right next to the dog area if you have children with you. Overall, great for my dog to...
