School holiday fun with the Bibb Track specialists! Embark on a captivating 2km journey (each way) to meet the enchanting native creatures from the Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre.

Designed for kids aged 5 to 12 years, witness the joy on their faces as they interact and learn about our fascinating native animals.

Follow the Waugal trail markers for a return trip at dusk, creating a memorable adventure.

The best part of booking an event with us is that all profits go back to the maintenance of the Bibbulmun Track – you should be proud!

Included perks:

  • Trained and experienced Bibb Track guides.
  • Expert presentation from the volunteers at Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre.
  • Getting up close and personal with some cuddly, and not so cuddly, native animals!

Note: Maximum two kids per adult, and a maximum of two adults per child. The location is just one hour from Perth. Not suitable for pushchairs.

And remember to bring your torch!

For safety and enjoyment, all children must be accompanied by an adult, and, in the spirit of adventure, all adults must be escorted by at least one child!

It’s always beautiful and relaxing to get out onto the track. We had magnificent weather too, perfect for walking. Really loved all the animals. What a treat to get so close to some of those beautiful animals. Simone, event participant.

My husband and I along with our 5 year old son thoroughly enjoyed this event. Every aspect of it was excellent from the volunteer guides to the extremely knowledgeable ladies from the Kanyana rescue centre. Steve whom we met at the campsite has a natural rapport with children – well done for being able to control such a large group for over an hour! Everyone contributed in making the afternoon very special for all the kids – I know our son will remember this experience for a very long time. We are already looking forward to booking again next year! – Danielle April 2016

I booked my grandchildren aged 4 and 6 on this event along with my husband and daughter and they were all very impressed. The kids loved the experience and we all thought it was really well organised and the ladies from Kanyana amazing with their knowledge and the way they presented it getting the kids so involved. Thank you all so much. Isabel – April 2016

Hi folks. I have been with the Foundation since 1997, when I first joined as a member and maintenance volunteer. I wanted to get involved in the ‘new’ Track after getting terribly lost on the ‘old’ Bibbulmun Track. From there I began leading walks and then came on staff in the office in 1999 as Events Manager and Lead Guide. I love walking and have done a few end-to-ends. I really get a kick out of sharing this passion with everyone. I am still a volunteer and look after Nerang Campsite. Come and join me on this event!
