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?

Morning tea will be at the end of the walk on the lawn area near the carpark beside the Surfing WA Headquarters. There are 2 picnic tables & tiered lawn seats. So no need to carry your morning tea you can leave it in your car.

There is a coffee shop about 100 metres away at Trigg Point, but is very popular on the weekends.
