Walliston is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the Shire of Kalamunda.

Prior to 1949 it was a stopping place on the Upper Darling Range Railway. It was named after John and Emma Wallis, the area's first settlers who arrived in the 1880s. The name was applied by the Railway Department in 1915. [LandInfo WA|m|W|2008-10-10] The Nine Network's Perth Television transmission tower is located here.

This suburb's main feature is a light industrial area in the north-eastern part of the suburb, an Australia Post mail-processing centre, a Transperth bus depot, Shire of Kalamunda council equipment storage facilities, a large workshop and a few automotive specialists.
