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?
A medium grade walk of approximately 12 km return.
The trail goes up and down the dunes and is quite sandy in places. We will stop for morning tea at the lake and return on the same track. Note that there is a cafe in Yanchep National Park offering morning tea.
Meet at Whitfords Train Station for an 8:30 am departure to car share to the start. Alternatively park in Walding Rd, Carabooda, and wait in a safe place for car sharers to arrive at around 9:00 am.
In the northern part of Whitfords station car park but south of Whitfords Avenue. The station is at the junction of Mitchell Freeway and Whitfords Avenue.
