Fun April holiday interactive activities on the Bibbulmun Track

Editor 20.03.2019

These Autumn school holidays are the perfect time to get the kids and the whole family out on the Track and into the bush. Bushwalking is a fun and healthy outdoor activity which can be enjoyed by all the family.

The Bibbulmun Track, Western Australia’s world-class long distance walk trail, is right on our doorstep, stretching over 1,000km from the Perth Hills to Albany, through some of the most beautiful and varied natural areas of Australia’s South West.

The Bibbulmun Track Foundation is running two events for the kids these April school holidays, Camp Cooking for Kids and Dr Dolittle Goes Bush.  These hands-on events are a great way to get kids amongst nature and away from the X-Box and PlayStation.

Experienced guides will keep the kids occupied while parents or grandparents can sit back and enjoy just being in the outdoors. Both events include a short walk on the Bibbulmun Track.

Camp Cooking for Kids
When: Wednesday 24 April 2019 – session (A) 9:30am to 12:30pm or session (B) 12.30pm to 3.30pm
School Holiday Fun! Enjoy a 4km return walk to a typical Bibbulmun Track campsite where kids learn to make things like damper and pizza and get to eat their creations.  The kids will love this hands-on camp cooking experience! 1 hr from Perth.
