Upcoming Walks

Proposed Spring GWN walk in 2026!

Monday, September 28 to Monday, October 5 near Dwellingup

Planning for the Spring Walk is well underway. Nan Schapel is taking the lead as walk coordinator and we will stay on a beautiful property outside Dwellingup. We will enjoy picturesque walks through the unique North Jarrah Forest and have knowledgable speakers coming to share with us some of the challenges in the area. There is a dam on the property so some chilly dips are in store! The Spring walk will be based at one camp only and will start Monday 28th September and run for 7 nights until Monday 5 October.

Would you like to help with the walk planning? We have long-time members who are keen to offer mentoring. There are many areas to help – food, children’s activities, transport and walk planning. Please email admin@greatwalknetwork.org for more information.

Looking forward to walking in nature and community with you!

What is the great walk?

Great Walks are about camping together in nature, walking the land and living in community. We organise food, walks, activities and provide equipment including a bus, kitchen facilities and a marquee for shelter. Everyone shares the responsibilities and we love having people of all ages come together. Walks are organised for interest and variety and cater to all levels of ability, with pick up points often available. The camps are family friendly, vegetarian, drug and alcohol free and encourage environmental / social care and awareness.

Where

We mainly walk in the South West of Western Australia and have occasional walks inland and further north.

When

We organise two walks per year during Autumn and Spring school holidays, plus a summer camp. Camps run for around 10 days.
