What to expect
You'll navigate Perth using a mobile app that acts as your guide. At each designated stop, you'll unlock an audio segment paired with photographs, footage or text that contextualises the woman's story—whether she broke ground in law, commerce, performance or politics. The trail connects real places where these figures lived, worked or left their mark. You control the rhythm: spend twenty minutes at one location or ten. The app provides turn-by-turn navigation so you won't lose your way. This isn't a typical heritage walk; it's more like solving a city-wide puzzle, with each piece revealing someone history nearly forgot.
