Grandad, you are welcome to takes Dad’s spot!

A great way to experience track walking and camping with little experience and without having to buy expensive equipment. It’s inspired us to do more of it and has also given us some confidence to do so. Kim – participating dad.

Tony did a great job explaining what to expect. Great equipment that we could borrow. Tony & Jim were fantastic guides and very patient with the kids. They were only too keen to impart their knowledge. I now feel confident to take the kids on the Bibbulmun Track by myself. Andrew – participating dad.
