Tucked in the centre of Midland’s historic precinct, Carnegie Park is a charming community space perfect for a quiet stroll, a relaxed picnic, or a short stop between local adventures. Just five minutes from Perth Midland Tourist Park, it’s one of the area’s most accessible green spaces — a lovely little pause amid the bustle of shops, cafés, and heritage buildings.
A Local Gem with a Touch of History
Named after the nearby Carnegie Library, which dates back to the early 20th century, the park sits at the crossroads of Midland’s past and present. While small in size, Carnegie Park carries a sense of character and calm that makes it a favourite among locals looking for a breather.
The surrounding precinct tells stories of Midland’s railway heritage and community roots — stroll around and you’ll spot restored façades and historical plaques that offer a glimpse into the town’s early days.
Relax, Recharge, and Take It Slow
Carnegie Park is designed for unwinding. Shaded benches and open lawns make it an inviting place to sit with a takeaway coffee, read a book, or simply enjoy the fresh air. With easy access from Great Eastern Highway and Midland Gate Shopping Centre, it’s an ideal rest stop if you’re spending the day exploring the region.
It’s also a popular meeting point for walkers and cyclists, with paths connecting through to Midland’s wider trail network. Whether you’re stopping on your way to Swan Valley, or winding down after a day out at Whiteman Park, this little patch of greenery offers a quiet reset.
Nearby Cafés and Attractions
Right beside Carnegie Park, you’ll find Midland’s café strip — perfect for a casual lunch or afternoon treat. Local favourites like Café Mojo and The Crooked Spire offer great coffee and friendly service. From here, it’s only a short drive to Woodbridge Riverside Park, Guildford’s heritage precinct, or the Swan Valley Wine Region, making Carnegie Park a great starting point for exploring the area.
