Where's Waly-ungup?
The Rockingham Lakes, Lake
Cooloongup and Lake Walyungup, form the centre-piece of Rockingham
Lakes Regional Park, a vast network of environmentally significant
lands that stretch across the City of Rockingham.
The two lakes are an extremely valuable natural asset, providing
unique opportunities for recreation and leisure, education and
scientific research, and conservation of flora and fauna. They are
home to distinctive Thrombolites, rock like structures formed by
micro-organisms over 300 million years ago, and play host to
migratory birds that make an annual journey from as far away as
Siberia.
Surrounding the lakes are at least 13 different vegetation
associations, ranging from impressive tall Tuart forest to the rare
sedgelands of the holocene dune swales. The Rockingham Lakes are
truly an asset that the community can cherish and enjoy for many
generations ahead.
