The Bibbulmun Track
Rating
8.80
ranking: 24

The Bibbulmun Track is fast gaining international recognition as one of the world’s best long distance walking tracks.

The Bibbulmun track was opened in 1979 and was named after the Aboriginal people who lived in the area that the track covers. The name of the track recognises the Bibbulmun people’s practice of walking long distances for ceremonial gatherings.

The track takes walkers through some stunning and awe inspiring scenery, from karri and tingle forests to coastal heath lands. It passes through Dwellingup, Collie, Balingup, Donnelly River Village, Pemberton, Northcliffe, Walpole, Peaceful Bay and Denmark.

Walkers can experience the Bibbulmun Track in a number of ways: via a series of day walks, an eight week adventure trek, or in a guided group. Accommodation options include camping on the track or staying in the towns along the route.

Location: the Bibbulmun Track extends 1000 kilometres from Kalamunda on the outskirts of Perth, to Albany on the south coast of Western Australia.

Definitely worth a day's trip to trek and experience the bush on foot.

Parts of the track are overgrown and impassable but otherwise a very enjoyable experience. Some amazing scenery to behold.

The Bibbulmun Track sums up WA - every section is so different from the next you could almost believe you were in a different country!

have only done the Kalamunda section so far (loved it) and planning another trek down south very soon. Very rewarding experience that's worth the effort.

this is one place that can be seen in any number of ways. I love how it can be a one day stroll or a full hiking expedition over days or even weeks.

I haven't done this but it is on my list (maybe not all of it) The section near the wind farms in Albany is inspirational.
