Venues West Champion Lakes Regatta Centre Reviews

Its an ok venue. Toilet facility is disappointing and the distance from the CBD can become annoying. In terms of rowing the lack of trees on the other side provides an unfair lane advantage.

1st Regatta for IGSSA girls and first look at venue. Great set up for rowing. Set up and set down areas easy to access. The only negative thing is the distance from parking to spectator area.

I love it here...I love to see a race here some time with the Dragon boats.

A very nice area. Well maintained. Good walking paths, nice (but small) kids playground, public toilets and two children's swimming areas. And of course the rowing course looks good. I'd say the facility is equal to the Olympic regatta centre in Sydney.

Absolutely beautiful spot. Since visiting over 10 years ago, this location has grown into a vibrant community. I attended a sporting gathering on Sunday morning (Sept 2020) and the amount of friendly faces and morning exercisers was great!

Family friendly paths with plenty of room. The paths offer a 5km loop around a lake. Plenty of plants and animals to keep the eyes entertained. We particularly enjoys the various ducks that have made home to the area.

It s a great spot for exercise, a picnic or even just a breather for 10 minutes, watching the water and thinking about the Queen in a swim suit

Good place for a walk. Watch out for bikes racing round

nice view down there and could walk around the the lake

Would be better if there was a cafe or a kiosk for all the people attending the lake daily.

Good for walking, running, riding and walking your dogs. Would be better if they had more bins for doggy poo bags to put in and more drinking fountains. Plus it will be good if they had solar lights around lake as when out late and it gets dark it is hard to see the path.

This place is excellent for rowing, kayaking, and exercise, long wide footpath runs all the way down the lake. That's 5km of footpath. It's a fun venue that has lanes for kayaking and canoeing. It has change rooms and a kitchen for hot food in the functions area. Lift access and disability parking. Beautiful venue in a beautiful setting with the mountains in the background.

Great place for a walk just beware not much shade if walking dogs in summer.

Great venue, ideal for a safe leisurely walk or a 5k run around the lake.
Water points for dogs, cycle tracks right around. There is even a public beach great for a cool dip and a picnic on the foreshore.

For swimming, cycling, walking and just chilling out, look no further than Champions Lakes when you live around Kelmscott, Camillo, Seville Grove, Armadale, Haynes or even Piara Waters and Harrisdale. The only negative thing about this place is, its where snakes are in abundance. Watch your step.

An impressive artificial pond. Its gotten way less stanky now an ecosystem has built up.

Great place to run Radio Control Boats. Lots of folk out, with kids on bikes, n dogs out for a run. Probably the best pond for flatwater sport in Perth. RC, rowing etc.

Enjoying the social dragon boating Wednesday evenings

Clean, lovely to sit down and relax or to just go for a walk. Snake haven so be careful and remember, tiger snakes are all year round and love bodies of water.

Perfect place for a regatta. There is a 2000m course, and a warm up lake. Each 500m is clearly displayed along the course.

Well maintained grounds. Opening times on the rowing island on the gate would be helpful.

Nice relaxing walk. It's about 5.2km and not a lot of shade so don't forget sunscreen and a hat!

Beautiful for walking, picnic but will be 5star if there is a cafe.

Great public asset. Internationally rated rowing complex. Walk and cycle tracks. Well used for competition and recreational activities.

Some good facilities and 2 good tracks around the lakes for bike riders, dog walkers and families.

Great place if you're a rower, not so much if you're not involved in the sport. That being said, there is a jetpack company based there, and from accounts of those that have done it, that's definitely a highlight, a solid idea for a date too.

Great facility for rowing WA, allow 45mins from Perth city

World class facility, kayak sprint national championships have been excellent so far.

I love this place....spend a lot of time on the safe water kayaking and rowing with Champion Lakes Boating Club

Love paddling or rowing this is the place. Also good for a great walk/run or skate around the course.

Good facilities. Good for casual and serious kayakers alike.

Nice quite place for a walk or to bike. Small area for BBQ and kids play area available.

An 8 lane 2000m course with markings every 250 meters and larger signs for every 500m. A large training lake. Pontoons for launching and landing the boats is also along the training lake. Great for regattas as there are plenty of facilities.

Nice views, multiple flat paths for walking or bike riding. Could use more bins so people are more inclined to pick up their dogs poo. Good community spot with playgrounds, bbqs and seating

Fantastic for serene exercise in wide open place. Lucky to have this nearby.

Lovely place for regatta or functions. Great crew/ staff from Rowing WA and venue west

Not much shade, plenty free parking, not recommended for swimming.

Marvellous facility for not only canoeing, but walking, cycling & jogging.

Great spot, decent facilities and a smooth 5km track for cyclists, runners and walkers alike with parallel tracks for when it gets busier.

Very yes.
Good shenang.

Apart from the long drive, an excellent rowing facility for spectators and rowers alike. Great views of the races.

Beautiful lakes approximately 5 km walk all the way round... Good for a bit of exercise

It's the home of the State Champion's "the LAKERS" Dragonboat club 2017/18

This place is great for kids, my children all have a ball there.

Attended a Dragon Boat race event organised by Indian (Kerala) Community. Amazing place.

It us an incrediblly relaxing place filled with a great rowing course

11 out of 10. Great place for a 5 km, Walk very relaxing great scenery between the lake and the hills awesome view....

I would have made it 5 star but the toilets were still not functioning and it could do with some seating around the lake for older walkers. Otherwise it is a lovely walk.

Lovely for a walk however you might need inset repellent as the fly's were outrageously bad

Fine anf safe place for a walk and to spend a couple of hours with the kids

Great venue for water racing/fun ... although for the willing spectator, with few amenities and hospitality services, not that accommodating ... it's for the participating sports people for sure

Great for events. Enough toilets. Great facilities.

Great venue for the Duathlon. Showers, change rooms and lots of parking.
