Join us for a delightful hike throughout the Darling Range on the Bibbulmun Track between Perth Hills Discovery Centre and Hewett's Hill campsite.
The route we've chosen takes us via Mundaring Weir, weaving our way through mixed jarrah and banksia forest, before reaching South Ledge Picnic area. We then take the 400 metre return walk to Golden view Lookout where we'll enjoy amazing panoramic views over Lake CY O'Connor, the Mundaring Weir and the Helena River Valley. After having a break here we continue our walk onto Hewett's Hill Campsite which is officially the Number 1 campsite along the Bibbulmun Track from the Northern Terminus. We enjoy a rest and a bite to eat before returning along the same route back to the Perth Hills Discovery Centre.
The approximate time for this walk is 6 hours, however the walk may run over/under time depending upon the overall pace of the group. Please let our Guide know if you are on a time schedule.
How To Get There:
From Perth, drive along the Great Eastern Highway to Mundaring, turn right in Mundaring on to Mundaring Weir Rd, continue a further 7km to the round-about and turn left on to Allen Road. The Centre is approx 1km along Allen Road on the right.
Distance:
16km return Terrain:Undulating/Medium Rating - Suitable for those with a good level of fitness and moderate bushwalking experience.

I haven't been to Bribie Island in years and have never walked around the island. Such a treat and with a great group of women and of course our absolutely wonderful hosts, Caron & Kat.
Lovely location, great guides and fun friendly company. :)
Great fun and great company
Joining an Adventurous Women trip is like catching up with a group of friends. With the guides and your fellow travelers you are at ease from day 1 to enjoy the scenery, walking and conversation.
Great fun and great company
Fabulous day. The crew were exceptional as were the volunteers. Great fun learning the ropes (literally) and being given the chance to 'captain' the boat.
Fantastic adventure that suits all abilities.
