KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Welshpool

  • Getting a car hire in Welshpool is the best way to explore the city and its surrounding areas. The public transport system can be confusing to visitors and isn't very comprehensive outside the city centre. Additionally, a hire car will allow you to make day trips to nearby attractions, such as Swan Valley, The Pinnacles and Perth Hills.
  • Welshpool car hire can be picked up from Perth Airport (PER); Terminals 1, 2, 3 and 4 all have car hire desks available. With multiple options, we recommend booking ahead through KAYAK to get the right car ready and waiting for you. From Perth Airport, it is roughly a 13min drive to Welshpool.
  • When driving your car hire in Welshpool, make sure you watch out for wildlife on the road. Although it is a more urban area of Western Australia, it is still likely that you will encounter wildlife, such as wallabies, possums and even kangaroos. You may not encounter as many bikes on the road because cyclists can ride on footpaths in Western Australia. However, it is important to be aware pedestrians are given the right of way over cyclists on footpaths, and cyclists are given the right of way over cars on roads.
  • Weather will likely be your biggest difficulty when driving in Welshpool. If visiting during hot weather periods, keep an eye on bushfire warnings, as smoke from bushfires may impede visibility. Additionally during intense heat, we recommend always keeping water with you in your Welshpool car hire. There may also be intense rain and wind that you will need to be prepared for. During the wet season, certain roads may flood and subsequently may only open to certain vehicles or be closed entirely. If you head far outside of Welshpool, you may find yourself driving on gravel roads; on these roads, make sure to avoid braking suddenly and slow down when turning.

FAQs about hiring a car in Welshpool

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Welshpool?

    The best type of car to drive in Welshpool will depend on how you are intending to use it. You will likely find a 4WD best for driving in intense weather conditions, making you more able to drive on restricted roads and take day trips into rural areas. If you plan on staying within Welshpool, then the roads can accommodate any type and size of vehicle, so the best car will be whatever you are most comfortable in and can hold you, your passengers and your luggage.

  • What’s the speed limit in Welshpool?

    50 km/h is the default speed in all of Western Australia; if you are driving on a road with no speed signs, this will be the speed limit. Usually if you are driving in an area with lots of pedestrians and in any school zones, the speed limit will be 40 km/h. 100 km/h will be the usual speed limit on freeways; however, Forest and Bussel Highways have spots where this limit is reduced to 80 km/h.

  • Where are the best places to park in Welshpool?

    Parking is generally very affordable and should be easy to find while using car hire in Welshpool. Note that any on-street parking requires a ticket, even if it is a free parking zone. For longer-term parking close to the city centre, you can use the website Book A Bay to secure a spot in advance and get a lower price.
