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.

It was my first hike with Adventurous women and I really enjoyed it. The distance was challenging but manageable and a good pace. Beautiful scenery and great bunch of ladies. Thank you.
Having now completed the Cape to Cape journey, a long-time dream of mine, gave me such appreciation for our beautiful landscape, rugged coastline and magnificent oceans that demand our respect. Being given the means and support to do this, at times, challenging walk by Adventurous Women to fulfill this rewarding experience makes me feel so privileged. Sharing the week with such a lovely like-minded group of women up for the challenge was uplifting as we endeavoured, no matter our age, to complete this renowned track.
Good day out with great views and some hill and terrain challenges which was good training for Oxfam trail ! Our guide Sue was excellent and hadn’t realised we’d get real coffee and home baked treats on top of Mt .Cuthbert!
What an amazing trip! I look back now and find it hard to believe we enjoyed so many fabulous, diverse experiences in just 1 week. Now I know why this trip is one of the highlights of the AW calendar. Thanks Sue
