Walking is a year round activity. Bushwalkers of Western Australia Inc (BOWA) based in Perth has a complete annual programme. In Winter (May to October) longer walks of up to 20km in length are undertaken. These require a full day and most of the information about walking presented here applies to these walks. From time to time the Winter programme will include, for variety, a shorter half day walk. In Summer members maintain fitness by shorter walks around the Perth environs which are completed before midday. On almost every Sunday of the year it is possible to sample the experience of walking with our club. How do I get started?
Join us for another easy summer river walk on both sides of the Swan River in the East Perth area. We will cross the river via two footbridges, including a brand new one. We will stop for coffee near the end of the walk at a cafe at beautiful Claisebrook Cove.
Approximately 9 km.
Car park at the end of Summers Street, Mt Lawley, next to the Swan River. Accessible via Summers Street, East Perth.
