General Comments

It was amazing and most satisfying and pleasurable experience of my life.  The northern section is marvellous for its bush scenery but the southern section has spectacular coastal views although it is harder to walk.

Food/Supplies Comments

Food drops were very well organised.

Favourite Section

Albany to Denmark.

Highlights

Walking up to see the sunrise and the beautiful ocean views and seeing so many of nature’s wildflowers, forests and wildlife.

Wildlife

Kangaroo, emu, echidna & birds.

Your Best Equipment

Tent and sleeping bag.

Advice for Others

If you are contemplating walking the Bibbulmun Track, make sure you have all necessary equipment.  Do not try doing it on the cheap as in the end you will finish off worse off.
