Most
club activities are day walks of 12 to 18 kilometres led
by volunteer leaders in the hills area within 100 kilometres
of Perth.
Most of these walks have a component
of SAA class five or six where the route is across unmarked
trails or in some cases substantially unmodified terrain.
Most walking is in the bush. However there are bushwalking
activities in the wild and remote bush, along coastlines
and around mountains in National Parks and other areas
ranging from Kakadu, to Karijini, to Peak Charles, to
the Fitzgerald River, to Albany, to Cape Leeuwin and many
points between.
The
longer distance activities involve camping out overnight,
and accommodation ranges from camping beside the car,
to the relative luxury of a Bibbulmun Track hut, to a
hiking tent, or in the open in a bivvy bag. Sometimes,
where available, walkers even stay in hotels or guest
houses.
During the summer months, as the bush
dries out, activities concentrate on opportunities for
swimming, and the programme includes cycling and canoeing.
