Screenshot maps on home Wi-Fi — coverage can drop on Ghost House even if McNess usually has a bar. 000 needs reception. Download Emergency+.
Best map for…
Plain English, not GIS. Pick the pin that matches the day you actually have.
First timer / family half-day
Start at the McNess pin. Koala boardwalk, picnic ovals, then one short walk. Do not treat Henry White grass as overflow parking.
Booked cave / limestone
Crystal Cave meeting point is not a walk-up. Hold a ticket, then Caves Walk or Dwerta Mia. Cabaret Cave is a functions venue.
Ghost House day
There is no ruins car park. Register Walk Safe at McNess, yellow markers, lunch water. This pin is not a 4WD shortcut.
Walking tracks
Use this site’s trails hub for named walks, then Explore Parks WA / Trails WA for grade, distance and open/closed. These embeds are not a trail app.
McNess House Visitor Centre
Working front door: park entry, bookings, Walk Safe, shop. Corner of Indian Ocean Drive and Yanchep Beach Road. Sealed 2WD. Orientation pin only — not a live parking cam.
Interactive map — pin may be approximate. Confirm trailheads and road status before you drive.
Crystal Cave
Guided, ticketed meeting point. Being in the park is not a cave ticket. Caves Walk passes the precinct — that still does not open the gate. Cabaret Cave is a functions venue, not this pin.
Interactive map — pin may be approximate. Confirm trailheads and road status before you drive.
Loch McNess
Wetland heart. Wetlands Walk ~2.7 km. Not a swim. Ghost House yellow markers leave from this country — read the post if you only wanted the lake loop.
Interactive map — pin may be approximate. Confirm trailheads and road status before you drive.
Ghost House Walk (start at McNess)
There is no ruins car park. You drive to McNess and walk the 12.4 km Class 3 loop. This pin is orientation only — confirm the signed start and Walk Safe at the visitor centre, not a 4WD shortcut.
Interactive map — pin may be approximate. Confirm trailheads and road status before you drive.
Henry White Oval campground
Official Park Stay only — never affiliated here. Day visitors: picnic ovals and precinct bays, not booked campsites. Vacant-looking grass is often a paid site.
Interactive map — pin may be approximate. Confirm trailheads and road status before you drive.
Yanchep (gateway town)
Closest town beds, fuel and food. Two Rocks is the next coastal town north. Perth is the genuine day-trip start (~45–60 min). No assumed bowser at McNess.
