Machine clearing works, associated with adjacent private property along the Bibbulmun Track, has caused disruption to the Track north (from Eden Rd) and south of the Nullaki Campsite. Two sections of the Track in the above area are now along grader constructed tracks. Walkers are asked to please carefully follow Bibbulmun Track markers and watch for vehicle and machine traffic.We apologise for any inconvenience and visual impacts.
Prescribed Burns
DEC conducts a programme of prescribed burning operations during spring and autumn each year. Prescribed burning operations are undertaken for a variety of reasons, including property protection, fuel reduction and biodiversity management.
These burns are carefully planned however they may cause some disruption to users. Where prescribed burning operations impact on the Track, temporary diversions will be put in place. Where the Track is diverted, walkers should follow the white Waugal trail markers. Prescribed burning operations are dependant on appropriate weather conditions and as such, dates for operations are not available in advance.
As soon as we know a burn is about to take place, we will post the information on this page.
