Food/Supplies Comments

A good supply of dried food and supplies bought from shops along the way, who were very welcoming.  I didn’t need any food drops.

Favourite Section

Loved the transition from Jarrah to Karri - refreshing, waterways, undergrowth and also the coast.

Highlights

Mandalay Beach was definitely a highlight.

Personal Reactions

Found the experience very satisfying - would recommend this walk to anyone with the time to do it.

Wildlife

The presence of snakes should not be understated.  Wear gaiters.

Your Best Equipment

I used walking poles bought from Mountain Designs - very useful, helped with a knee injury.

Advice for Others

It is better to prevent blisters than try to heal them.
