Boat Harbour rehabilitation

4 August 2022

A major project to prevent further erosion and encourage revegetation in the dune stretches along the south coast is progressing well.  

On the third campaign this year, our volunteers were pleased to be joined by rangers from the Binalup Aboriginal Corporation who are keen to learn about the techniques we are using to stabilize the Track in these sandy conditions and rehabilitate badly eroded sections near Boat Harbour.

We look forward to building on this partnership and learning from the rangers about how they care for country.
