Booking Form

A rite of passage for the kids! Ok Dad (or Grandpa), it’s time to get the kids out into the bush, camping like you used to do with your dad! Give mum a break and give yourselves the chance to spend two days with the kids (8yrs - 13yrs) to rediscover each other and the bush by walking around 10km each day. Learn to set up camp and try out some of your own camp cooking. Also experience an optional walk ascending to the summit of Mt Cooke (5km return) without all your gear!

Includes return transport from Murdoch Park'n'Ride, guided walk, map, comprehensive planning night, trip preparation manual and equipment hire. BYO food.

The price stated is for one adult and one child. An extra child per booking is welcome provided there is space. Max two kids per adult.
