Auswalk Walking Holidays

From $2695 to $2755

The Bibbulmun Track is Western Australia’s longest walking trail at almost 1,000 kilometres, going all the way from Perth to Albany on the south coast. Auswalk have selected the most scenic and varied coastal and karri forest sections between Walpole and Albany and packaged them into a delightful seven days of walking.

Hike through magnificent towering karri and tingle forests, both unique eucalypts that are found only in south-west Western Australia.

Onwards to the ocean and a coastline that’s liberally dotted with breathtaking beaches and idyllic coves. Auswalk deliberately avoided lots of sandy beach walking though, focusing instead on cliff top tracks with many elevated vantage points offering stunning panoramas.

A little inland, climb to the summit of Monkey Rock for a birds-eye view over Denmark’s Wilson Inlet. What a peaceful place this is to enjoy a break.

There are stunning wildflowers all year round with prolific displays in springtime and the rare ficofolia flowering gum in summer. This track offers remote hiking with a huge variety of scenery.

Incredible views out over the azure blue waters of the Indian Ocean are present most of the way.

Most of the time will be spent north of Margaret River where the walk traverses clifftops, deserted beaches, hamlets, villages, coastal heathlands, peppermint tree woodlands and majestic Karri forests. This walk also avoids the longest days on the beach. Being located in Margaret River, an area renowned for its excellent lodging and dining experiences, adds another dimension to the overall experience. Why not add a day to visit the wineries!
