Bibbulmun Walking Breaks

Our Bibbulmun Walking Break self-guided itineraries range from two to six days, and combine suggested day-walks with interesting sights and attractions to visit, in and around the Track Towns.

Visitors can select one itinerary or join several together to create their own customised Bibbulmun Track holiday adventure. Each itinerary links to our Walker Friendly Business listings for accommodation and other services.

How our events benefit Perth & south-west businesses

The award winning Events Calendar, which is published twice yearly, encourages people of all ages to experience the Track through a wide range of events. These include ‘Ramble and Paddle’, a walking and canoeing weekend in Dwellingup, and the ‘Balingup Explorer’, an introduction to do-it-yourself overnight bushwalking in the beautiful yet challenging Blackwood area. These events, as well as our group activities, use a number of local businesses for meals and refreshments, adventure activities, accommodation and transport.

Tourism packages

The Foundation also tailor-makes packages for walking groups and conducts an 8-day 'Highlights of the Bibbulmun Track' itinerary and a 'Bibbulmun & Beyond' itinerary which incorporate many accommodation providers, restaurants and attractions in the towns along the Track.

A wide range of merchandise including special day packs, water bottles, clothing, maps and guidebooks are available, retail or wholesale, from the Bibbulmun Track Foundation. These can be purchased as individual items or as part of a tailor-made package.
