The nearest train station is Bull Creek on the Perth-Mandurah Line (est.10mins from Perth City). From Bull Creek Stn, catch Bus 178 (Stand 9) to Beatrice Av (after Aldam Cr) Stop 20088 (est. 8mins). Walk towards the river and turn right along Riverside Dr towards Shelley Foreshore (about 350m; est. time - depends how fast you run!).

Head south from Perth along the freeway bike path until on the southern side of the Mt Henry Bridge. Continue along the shared path under Mt Henry Bridge for approximately 250 metres. The path joins and continues along The Esplanade. Turn left onto The Esplanade and follow it around to the right as it becomes Pulo Road. Continue down to Leach Highway traffic lights and turn left into the shared path cycleway. Proceed along the path past Bateman Yagan Park turning left at the Webb Street intersection. Turn left again on to the shared path which follows Bull Creek Road. Continue down this path to Riverton Drive West. Follow the path for 3.5km to the Shelley Foreshore park.

Turn off Leach Hwy onto Beatrice Av, at the Corinthian Park Tennis Club, and head north towards the Canning River. Just before the river, at the roundabout, turn right onto Riverton Dr and the carpark is 300m further on the left, just past the Shelley Foreshore toilet block.

Shelley 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 Shelley parkrun is fun and safe for everyone.
