Garvey Park parkrun

Bus: Bus Route 940 leaves Elizabeth Quay Bus Station at 7:00am, arriving at Stop 14467 (Great Eastern Highway) at 7:30am. From here, it's 1 kilometre to Garvey Park. Bus Routes 290/291 travel between Midland Train Station and Redcliffe Train Station, stopping along the way near Fauntleroy Avenue. Redcliffe Train Station (Airport Line) is 1.8 kilometres to Garvey Park. We recommend using the Transperth Journey Planner to plan public transport use.

If you are travelling on foot or bicycle the Principal Shared Path will take you straight through Garvey Park which is 11km from the city, 8km from Crown Perth in Burswood, and 5km from the airport.

If using SATNAV enter Garvey Park, Fauntleroy Ave Ascot. The main artery is Great Eastern Highway. If coming from Perth city travel along GE Highway to Fauntleroy Ave and turn left.

There is a car park on the left at the Art Studio before the playground. There is a second car park at the Kayak Club. Further parking can be accessed to the right of the Kayak Club on the grass, by driving through the club carpark.

Garvey Park parkrun is a fun, free event organised by volunteers for the benefit of everyone. We wish to make the event as safe as possible, so participants, spectators and helpers are asked to take care about the following:

• Please be considerate to the park and other park users at all times.
• Children under the age of eleven must be accompanied (within arm's reach) throughout the event by a parent, guardian or appropriate adult of the parent's choice.
• Please arrive by foot, by pedal-power or by public transport if you can - your efforts help to reduce our impact on the park and the planet.
• We invite everyone to consider volunteering at parkrun. Your support helps your parkrun events remain sustainable and free for all in your community, and it’s also a wonderful way to improve your own health and happiness. Please visit the volunteer page for more information.
• Take care near roads and car parks – some vehicles drive very quickly. Please congregate away from the cars and be careful in particular if you have children. If you’re driving to the event, please drive carefully.
• Take care on uneven surfaces – whether on grass or on tarmac. Watch out for cyclists, other participants, pedestrians, children, dogs, wildlife, park animals, vehicles, park maintenance work, falling branches, bollards, posts and other obstacles around the course.
• Please ensure that you are fit enough to walk, jog, run 5k (3.1 miles) with us.
• If you see someone with a serious problem, please stop to help them out and get help as soon as possible.
• If you’re watching, keep clear of participants on the course, and look after any children and dogs you may have with you.
• It is not permitted to run with a pushchair and a dog at the same time.
• You are welcome to take part with one dog by your side, within reach at all times, on a short, handheld, non-extendable lead. The use of waist harnesses is prohibited. Please also see this Support Site entry for further details about parkrunning with dogs.
• parkrunners pushing buggies are welcome, but please take care of others around you and do your best to start at an appropriate place in the field for your pace.

We hope these tips help to ensure that Garvey Park parkrun is fun and safe for everyone.
