General Comments
I decided to hike the Bibbulmun track because i didn't want to wait for it. It was my first long walk and also a fantastic experience to discover the WA wildlife. This hike was also a series of learnings wich allowed me to organize myself, my backpack ant to better endure the distances and the different terrain profiles.

Advice for Others
Make sure your backpack isn't heavy. Do not forget socks layers. Know how to cure blisters. Have a good pair of shoes. Enjoy the moment. And keep motivated.
