Realignments & Alternative Routes

• Murray River bridge crossing

  The new bridge crossing across the Murray River has been open since 2017. Walkers should follow the new alignment which is now clearly marked between Dookanelly Campsite and Harvey-Quindanning Rd and on the current Map 2 – Dwellingup.

  The old alignment between Dookanelly Campsite and the destroyed Long Gully Bridge, marked on old (pre-2017) Bibbulmun Track Map 2 - Dwellingup, is permanently closed. Walkers should ensure they have the latest map .

Diversions & Other Impacts

• Campfire bans in place

  Location: Dwellingup to Collie

  Campfire bans are now at all campsites in this section.

  No open fires may be lit whatsoever at these sites.

  Walkers must use only fuel stoves for cooking.

  A reminder that Yourdamung Campsite is a no fire site and campfires are not permitted there at any time of year.

  The campfire bans will remain in place at least until April 2019 and may be extended depending on weather conditions.
