Never done any overnight bushwalking before?

If you don’t want to walk all day or tackle any unexpected ‘cardiac hills’ with an overnight pack, this weekend is for you. We only walk around 8km each day encountering only minor hills and camp at a Bibbulmun Track campsite.

Gain confidence and learn all the tricks of the trade from your guides who are experienced end-to-enders. 1¼hr from Perth.

Hi all, I have been a regular user of the Track ever since the realignment and have walked end-to-end both ways plus many sectional bits. As well as enjoying introducing people to the Track as a volunteer guide I also help to maintain it by looking after Mt Wells campsite and a section of Track each side. I love being out in the bush and the Track facilities make the wilderness experience much easier and more enjoyable. I often walk, tramp or ramble in other parts of Australia and elsewhere but it’s always a pleasure to be back on the Bibb especially in spring when the wildflowers rival any I have seen anywhere else.

Hi all. As a mum of four sons, (now all in their twenties) I really treasure my time in the great outdoors! My enjoyment of bush walking began while growing up in SA, spending time around the volcanic lake areas of Mount Gambier, and also in the Gippsland region of Victoria. Nothing comes close to being able to leave the office and all its entrapments behind, and exchange it for some extended time on the Bibbulmun Track! See you out and about in the great outdoors.

Hi all, I'm Paddy. I joined the Foundation in 2010 and really want to give something back to the Track and share my excitement and love for bushwalking and the environment. So I became a volunteer guide!
