Our Track maintenance Field Days have just kicked off for the year, with working bees at West Cape Howe and Boat Harbour campsites on the weekend.

There are a number of fires which have impacted sections of the Bibbulmun Track.

SV’s visited Wellington District this week to inspect three 6m kit-bridges, no longer on the current Bibbulmun Track alignment. The plan is for volunteers to dismantle the bridges so they can be reused along the current alignment where old timber bridges are failing.

Walkers should seriously reconsider plans to embark on overnight walks on the Track during Birak and Bunuru (our summer months).
Bushfires may impact the Track between December and March. Campfire bans will be in place at all campsites on the Bibbulmun Track at least until the end of March and possibly longer.

The vodcast, “Blood, Sweat & Needles!”, and Justin Karcher’s upcoming 1000km Bibbulmun Track End-to-End will  raise awareness and funds to primarily go towards research for a cure for T1D. 10% of the money we raise will be given back to The Bibbulmun Track Foundation to maintain and preserve the track!

What a fantastic evening we had at our Bibbulmun Bowling Members Night last Friday at the Inglewood Bowling Club!
