Manning Park Bushland Wildflower Walk

Join Wildflower Society guides and volunteers from Friends of Manning Ridge to discover the unique native flora of Manning Park and learn about the plants that make this bushland special. 

There are three walks on this day, with staggered start times. The walk is the same, but each time slot will have a different guide.

This walk is presented as part of Biodiversity Month 2026, a month-long celebration of Cockburn's unique wetlands, bushland and coastal ecosystems. Throughout September, the City of Cockburn is hosting a range of walks, workshops and community activities to help residents learn about, connect with and support the local environments that sustain our diverse native plants and wildlife.

To be the first to know about upcoming events and workshops make sure you subscribe to the Sustainable Living newsletter.

For all ages. This guided walk is approximately 1.5km/90 minutes and follows unsealed limestone paths, with some uneven surfaces and moderately steep sections. Participants should wear enclosed footwear and come prepared for all weather conditions, including sun, wind or rain.

We do recommend participants;

• have a reasonable level of fitness

• dress appropriately for the weather

• wear enclosed shoes for the walk

• bring a waterbottle
