Tour Description

There is something very mysterious about a full moon rising. Witnessing it from the top of Baldwins Bluff as you admire the surrounding valley and it is simply unforgettable.

This rugged 7km return hike kicks off with a 1km ascent up a steep and rocky hill that is sure to get the blood pumping! As you ascend the narrow Karri Hazel lined trail, you will hear the incredibly tranquil sounds of the water flowing down the nearby stream. Once we reach the top of our 150m vertical climb, we have a nice flat 1.3km meander through Jarrah and Marri woodlands until we reach the Baldwins Bluff lookout. Here, you will be in awe of the incredible views of Serpentine Falls and the moon rising above the valley.

Whilst we devour a delicious gourmet spread, Astronomer Rob Hunt from ScubaYorp will take us on a lunar journey as he talks all things moon! This is sure to be a lunar experience to remember!
