Walking through the karri forests between Pemberton and Donnelly River Village was a huge highlight. Mt. Cooke, Vincent and Cuthbert was also one of my favourite days along the track.

First experience with long distance hiking and I’m hooked! Onto the next trail whether it be the Larapinta or the Appalachian.

Amazing wildlife from wallabies to emu’s to the array of bird life that fills the forest with their chorus.

Definitely do a couple of overnight and multiple day trips to prepare so that you can get a good idea of how/if your equipment works and body management techniques that you will need to implement.
