Your Story or Advice for Others
General CommentsTry and avoid hitting a town on good friday and ANZAC day... And if you do... Book accommodation ahead... Every town offered simply incredible food.
Your Best Equipment
The guy ropes that let me set up my hiking pole tent in the huts.
Your Worst Equipment
My sit pad. It's not bad, but the seating infrastructure is so good I never needed it.
Advice for Others
Getting in while the pingerup plains are still dry makes it the easiest and most pleasant walking you'll ever do
