Constructed in 1994, North Dandalup Dam is the newest dam serving the people of Perth.
Situated 150km south of the city in rolling hills, the dam offers excellent recreation facilities and spectacular coastal views.

Unlike most of the other dams in the Hills Scheme supplying high quality drinking water to the people of Perth, the North Dandalup Dam is a very recent construction.

Barbecues and Picnics

Its attractive setting on the North Dandalup River in the southern reaches of the Darling Range makes this dam a very popular destination.
The recreation lake formed from the former pipehead dam is the focal point for a range of water-based activities including sailing model boats, wading and beach games. The grassed area next to the lake is ideal for picnics with free gas barbecues, toilets and ample parking within easy reach.

Walking and Views

A lookout situated between the two saddle dams slightly to the north offers spectacular views to Mandurah, the Peel Inlet and the Indian Ocean.
Or walk across the old pipehead dam wall for a close up view of activities down below on the recreation lake.
After a winter of heavy rain, the overflow from a spillway carved out of the natural rock is an added spectacle of a day out at North Dandalup Dam.
