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.

This was a lovely triple walk. Each one was easy with nice breaks in between to recover if needed. I absolutely loved the last walk and it’s wonderful cascading waterfalls. Meeting at a designated spot in midland and car pooling was a great idea. And the food that was available at the meeting spot was delicious. No need to pre pack your lunch. Yum…..
And as always Jazzy was full of information about the areas we were visiting.
First timer and had a great time, lovely group of ladies and I look forward to many more
What a great to spend a beautiful day. Beautiful scenery and great company.
Great day, but a very long one. Would have loved to had had a longer walk with BYO lunch at Point Lookout rather than lunch at the pub just because of the time it takes with that many people. Overall fabulous day . Girls always pull out the fantastic goodies for afternoon tea which is so lovely.
This was a great walk - beautiful place to walk. Betty is fantastic - there is never any pressure to try and keep up with the group and so I can walk at my own pace - with Betty keeping a close eye out.
Sue was always at hand when we needed her, and the meals were great. Jazz looked after us all day, and I think I got extra attention because I was old, although I think she will agree that I managed OK. And Leonie was just an extra bonus, especially with her i-phone tips.
A fabulous first hike with Adventurous Women!
Well-organised and with a great group of women.
Flinders Peak has been on my bucket list for a few years now and I am so glad that I have finally reached the summit. It is not an easy hike but it is challenging in that it is mostly uphill with a rocky ridge to walk along and many more rocks to climb. I loved it and would do it again. Thanks AW for hosting a great day out. As usual, your guides are welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful.
