About
Yalgorup National Park is a national park in Western Australia, 105 km south of Perth, and directly south of Mandurah.
The park is located on the western edge of the Swan Coastal Plain and contains a chain of about ten lakes; the name rises from the two Noongar words Yalgor meaning lake and -up meaning place of.
The area is part of the Peel-Yalgorup Wetland system, which is classified as a Ramsar Wetland Site and was added to the List of Ramsar wetlands of international importance in 1990. Some of the lakes that make up the system include Boundary Lake, Swan Pond, Lake Pollard, Lake Yalgorup and Newnham Lake.
