Helena Campsite

Helena Campsite is a Bibbulmun Track shelter situated above the Helena River Valley, accessible from Kalamunda or Mundaring in the Perth Hills. The current structure, reopened in June 2019, replaced the original shelter destroyed in a January 2018 bushfire.

Built from rammed earth, the redesigned shelter features more undercover seating and improved hanging space for gear.

Its orientation was deliberately rotated to maximize sweeping views over the valley and Lake CY O'Connor, while the north-facing opening captures warming winter sun.

The campsite sits at the top of a steep ascent through Wandoo woodland, rewarding hikers with panoramic scenery.

It serves as a popular overnight stop on the track, where walkers gather around campfires and share the experience with fellow hikers — and the occasional curious kangaroo known to frequent the area.
