WALK MENU
OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW
The Bibbulmun Track from Walpole to Denmark showcases the incredible biodiversity of Western Australia and the uniqueness of this region. Daily close encounters with towering forests of Karri, Tingle, Jarrah and Marri trees, mist-shrouded valleys and giant granite boulders are common. There are stacks of secluded coves, pristine beaches and gorgeous coastal heathland to explore. We’ve designed the walk to take in the diversity of landscape that this region is renowned for. Note, we have avoided walking on the beach sections. The track follows the cliff tops, via the stunning forest and includes many elevated vantage points like Monkey Rock.
This is a truly pristine wilderness, combining stunning coastal scenery and endemic flora and fauna. This is an environment that has been protected by vast distances and minimal human impact over millennia so expect the unexpected. If you have time why not tack a day on at Denmark and sample some of the wines from what is deemed to be one of the best wine growing regions in Australia. It’s certainly one of the prettiest.
Highlights:
- 4 days of pure bliss walking one of the most remote destinations in Australia
- Conspicuous Cliffs, Peaceful Bay, Giant Tingle Forest
- Stunning wildflowers year-round
- Isolated pristine beaches, idyllic coves, mist-shrouded valleys and massive forest
- 24/7 support of our team on the ground along the way.

They are invested in making each days departure and arrival as smooth as possible. The accommodation each night is in remote cottages, lodges and a motel. All of the accommodations are in locations that showcase the region, are welcoming and an excellent place to rest and. As always the rooms have their own ensuite.

You will walk on average 20kms a day through diverse landscapes that only the Bibbulmun can offer.
