ITINERARY:

11th April:

Begin by being picked up in Perth and transferred down to Margaret River region and check into SurfPoint Resort

Day 1: 

Cape Naturaliste to Smiths Beach 16km 

Begin the hike at Cape Naturaliste, the first section of the Cape to Cape Track. This starts with a gentle downhill stroll on the ‘access-for-all’ section of track to the stunning vistas of Sugar Loaf Rock. The Track then runs along an extended section of carved limestone sea cliffs before reaching the coastal hamlet of Yallingup. After Yallingup pass over the granite headland at Torpedo Rock and on to the fabled Smiths Beach.

Day 2: 

Smiths Beach to Moses Rock 14km 

From Smiths the topography changes quickly as giant granite marbles dominate near Canal Rocks. Travel high over the ridge and past Rotary Lookout, before dropping back down on to the beach at Injidup. Travel up high over the ridge, through the coastal tee tree and back onto the wild south-west facing coast. Weave through stunning areas of limestone cliff and granite before ending at the fantastic Moses Rock.

Day 3: 

Ellensbrook to Prevelly 13km - then enjoy a canoe journey on the famous Margaret River

Beginning at the historic settlement of Ellensbrook, explore the first European homestead in the region and admire the giant Morton Bay Figs. From Ellensbrook, the Track quickly leaves the coast and meanders through sand dunes and past Ellensbrook homestead and Meekadarbee Falls. Visit the isolated coves of Gnoocardup and the torquoise bay of Kilcarnup. Marvel at the centuries-old osprey nest in Horseshoe Bay and then take in some of the world’s finest surfing coastline at Prevelly. Enjoy a canoe experience up the Margaret River estuary.

Day 4: 

Redgate Beach to Boranup Forest 13km 

Begin at the historic Redgate Beach – a local surfing and fishing favourite. Next is very likely one of the best sections of the Cape to Cape Track: the scenic coastal cliffs at Bob’s Hollow and Contos (although we may be biased as CCET have adopted and maintain this leg!) Enter the majestic Karri forest, home to the world’s third tallest hardwood!

Day 5: 

Cosy Corner to Cape Leeuwin 19km 

Tackle the final stretch of the Track, hiking white-sand Deepdene Beach, marvelling at spectacular blow holes, enjoying a tranquil forest stretch, and finishing at majestic Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse. You made it!! Well done!!

Day 6: 

Enjoy a full day out enjoying the wineries and mountain biking in the magnificent Boranup Forest. 

Departure day: Enjoy a leisurely morning and check out by 10:00am
