Bushwalkers of Western Australia
Winter
Summer
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?

- Sun, 1. March 2026, 18:00 h - 21:00 h
- Where:
- Southend Road, Hamilton Hill - Hamilton Hill, WA
- Category:
- Medium/Hard Walk
Description
A moonlit walk of approximately 8 km in and around Manning Park, near the coast, just south of Fremantle. The trail includes a great mix of wide stony tracks, narrower paths and reasonable inclines rewarded with city and ocean views. A huge stone stairway leads down to Manning Park lake with picnic tables and toilets, and a paved path around the lake.
The pleasure of a summer walk by moonlight is to rely on the moon to light the way. However, do bring a torch or be prepared to use your phone light just in case.
Dress for a bushwalk, bring water, a snack or your evening meal.
This walk is rated Medium/Hard because of the inclines and declines and the need to negotiate rocky paths at night.
