The perfect opportunity to develop your compass and map reading skills.
On this fun but more intensive weekend we go through some more theory but this time the practical aspect is out on a Rogaine.
You will learn to navigate longer distances and will also learn to do it at night, finding your way through the bush – there are no trails!
Camp out (vehicle based camping) on both Friday and Saturday night and be prepared to walk around 20km over the entire weekend. Wildflowers will be plentiful on the walk! Best of all we make camp and the base camp. This means you don't have to carry your overnight gear!
COVID-19
You must be fully vaccinated and show proof of vaccination when you make your booking so that you can participate on this event.
Please ensure you have read and understood the COVID-19 vaccination requirements and other booking conditions before you proceed with this booking.
I was very nervous before attending this event, but I was always made to feel at ease especially with walking through scrub at night. Such a great way to get my confidence through the roof, not to mention how much fun we had. Do this event! - event participant
You don’t need to Get Lost with Steve (the one-day course) as a prerequisite, but it would be helpful as that course covers much more of the basic theory needed.
Includes entry fee to Rogaine, theory (on Friday evening) and plenty of practical tuition, dinner Saturday night, breakfast and lunch on Sunday. Own navigation compass required.
Exact location unknown until the week prior but usually held in bushland no more than 3hrs drive from Perth (but usually around a 1.5hr drive).

Hi folks. I have been with the Foundation since 1997, when I first joined as a member and maintenance volunteer. I wanted to get involved in the 'new' Track after getting terribly lost on the 'old' Bibbulmun Track. From there I began leading walks and then came on staff in the office in 1999 as Events Manager and Lead Guide. I love walking and have done a few end-to-ends. I really get a kick out of sharing this passion with everyone. I am still a volunteer and look after Nerang Campsite. Come and join me on this event!

I enjoy the outdoors and have bush walked and been involved with the Bibbulmun Track and the Foundation for some time. Apart from being a volunteer guide I am also a maintenance volunteer.

Hi, I have been bitten by the hiking bug and enjoy anything from a leisurely jaunt to a multiple day hike through our wonderful bush. I have enjoyed walking and hiking interstate and overseas and feel so lucky to have the Bibbulmun Track as a fantastic escape to nature right on our doorstep. I’ve managed several end-to-ends and have enjoyed many stretches on multiple occasions. I have met a number of wonderful people along the way and hope to be able to experience walking with you soon.

I like to hike! I enjoy the sights, the smells and the sounds of being in the bush. I think the Bibbulmun Track is fabulous as it is so readily accessible and user friendly. I have completed a number of end-to-ends, both continuous and sectional. I get out on the Track as often as I can. I have hiked here and abroad and can honestly say there is no place like home. If you share my enthusiasm come hike with me.
