Experience Includes
Itinerary
Pre-arrival day – Friday | Drive down from Perth and check into accommodation at Surfpoint Resort, right on the beach at Gnarabup. Go for a swim and then enjoy dinner provided at the Resort at 8pm service time (to allow those to get down from Perth after work).
Day 1 – Saturday
Enjoy a continental breakfast at Surfpoint Resort before heading off the beaten track to hike the fantastic stretch between Ellensbrook and Surf Point Resort at Gnarabup (15.5kms). We will provide you with a delicious lunch to have out on the coastline. If the water levels are too high to cross the Margaret River Mouth in Prevelly by foot, we will be canoed across, adding an extra bit of excitement to your day! After hiking for the day return to the Resort for a little R n R or enjoy the amazing Margaret River Region at your own leisure. We will all meet at The Common Bar & Bistro at 7pm for dinner!
Day 2 – Sunday
After breakfast we’ll hit the tracks for an awesoem day hiking the highlight stretch of the Cape to Cape Track today, 15km in total, beginning at the historic Redgate Beach – a local surfing and fishing favourite. Next is very likely one of the best sections of the Cape to Cape Track: the scenic coastal cliffs at Bob’s Hollow and Contos. Enter the majestic Karri filled Boranup Forest, home to the world’s third tallest hardwood. The solid track under foot and afternoon shade of the karri trees make it all seem easy! We will return back to Surfpoint at approximately 3pm.
After you hike, pack up and head back to the city, refreshed and ready to tackle the new week with plenty of amazing memories and stories to tell!
