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?
12 km easy walk around the river leaving from Burswood, crossing the Causeway & spending time exploring Heirisson Island then following the path onto Elizabeth Quay & over the Narrows Bridge. Continuing the walk along the South Perth Foreshore stopping for morning tea break at the Acai Corner van. You may also bring your own morning tea if you wish as we will be sitting on the grassed area near the coffee van. We then follow the path back to the cars.
Small car park next to the playground in Burswood Park, just off Camfield Drive. Plenty of overflow parking in Crown across the road.
