Hovea, Western Australia


Hovea is a suburb in the Shire of Mundaring in Western Australia.
It is centred on Jane Brook and encompasses the Railway Reserve Heritage Trail and John Forrest National Park.
Hovea extends as far north as Toodyay Road, and south to Glen Forrest and Great Eastern Highway. Its western boundary is also the western boundary of the park. Hovea was originally named Park View, but the name was changed in 1912 to avoid confusion between Park View, Swan View, National Park and Bellevue, all nearby railway stations.
