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?
Approximately a 14 km medium walk along the river's edge in Walyunga National Park. Meeting in the second public carpark (Walyunga National Park Trailhead Car Park). We will be walking to Bells Rapids then returning. All on a mostly flat bush track which is slightly uneven and rocky in places. Stopping for morning tea near Bells Rapids then returning via the same track for lunch back at the carpark. National Park fees apply.
