Tortoise Race A hare in a tortoise race A growing community of people is attempting to complete Western Australia’s long-distance trails in record time. Is it possible to enjoy and appreciate nature while you’re pushing yourself to your physical limits and going as fast as you can? by Lauren Cabrera estern Australia’s long- distance trails facilitate a Wcertain level of escapism, since the time it takes to complete the length of the trail means time away from our fast-paced lives and an opportunity to appreciate nature. For some, those hundreds of kilometres through varying terrain represent a challenge; the ultimate test of physical endurance to complete an end-to-end in record time. It is a polarising mindset that is certainly not for everyone. While designed to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace, there is increasing interest from serious athletes taking on the challenge of completing the 1000-kilometre Munda Biddi Trail and Bibbulmun Track as well as the 125-kilometre Cape to Cape Track in record time. Embarking on an end-to-end journey is inherently risky with limited access to food, shelter, water and first aid. With Previous page increased pace, comes increased risk and Main Cape to Cape Track.

  • Cape to Cape Guided Walk
    SOUTH WESTERN AUSTRALIA – CAPE TO CAPE TRACK 8-days / 7-nights guided walking based in Margaret River Walk the length of Western Australia’s iconic Cape to Cape Track on this 8 day tour. Starting at the lighthouse at Cape Naturaliste and ending at the waterwheel and lighthouse at Cape Leeuwin, the Cape to Cape Track covers 135km, predominantly along the ridge of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park. Accompanied by spectacular views and never far from the glorious Margaret River coastline, each day offers a plethora of cliff-top vistas, white sand beaches and seascapes. The scenery changes as the route turns inland through the coastal heath with its pretty wildflowers in the season, towards an entirely different landscape, with peppermint and banksia trees to the tranquil, breathtaking beauty of the tall timbered karri forest, so unique to Australia’s South West. Carrying only a day pack, you are free to enjoy the sights of one of Australia’s greatest multi-day walks. With transfers included to and from the track, each day the walk resumes from where it left off the day before, so you only unpack once. By walking the Cape to Cape Track as a series of day walks with experienced, knowledgeable guides, those with a moderate level of fitness can enjoy and complete the entire walk. On some days there are options to walk half a day and you are always welcome to take a day off, should you prefer. A perfect complement to the day’s activity, the guides prepare delicious, home-style meals ideally suited to walkers.

  • An Embodied Literary History of the Cape to Cape Track and the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Region of South-West Australia
    The Journal of the European Association for Studies of Australia, Vol.8 No.1, 2017 Heading South: An Embodied Literary History of the Cape to Cape Track and the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Region of South-west Australia John Charles Ryan Abstract: Based on the author’s end-to-end walk of the Cape to Cape Track (C2C), this article presents a literary history of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste region traversed by the trail. The C2C is a continuous, 135-kilometre coastal pedestrian path from Cape Naturaliste to Cape Leeuwin south of Perth in the south-west corner of Western Australia. A relatively short route by long-distance trekking standards, the C2C reverberates with literary narratives, incidents and encounters. In 1831, explorers John Dewar and Andrew Smith walked northbound from Augusta to the Swan River, approximately following the modern-day orientation of the track. Known for tempestuous weather, Cape Leeuwin—the southern terminus of the C2C, near Augusta, where the Indian and Southern Oceans converge—was the model for “Lewin’s Land” referenced in Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels (1726) and later alluded to in D.H. Lawrence and Mollie Skinner’s The Boy in the Bush (1924). Drawing from theories of emplacement (de Certeau; Edensor; Gros; Ingold; Ingold and Vergunst; Merleau-Ponty; Michael; Solnit), this article describes walking as a medium for understanding the imbrications between bodies, landscapes, journeys, histories and stories. Keywords: Leeuwin-Naturaliste Region; Western Australia; Cape to Cape Track; bushwalking; literary history On the second morning, as also on every succeeding morning, we started before sun-rise, continuing our march sometimes by moonlight.

  • An Historical Geography of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Region 1829-2005
    From Colonial Outpost to Popular Tourism Destination: an Historical Geography of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Region 1829-2005 Dale Sanders BA Honours Curtin University of Technology This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 2005 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work, which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. …………………………………………………. Dale Sanders ii Abstract While much of inland rural and regional Australia in the early 21st Century is struggling to survive through a tough restructuring period and significant population decline with its associated impacts on local services, many coastal locations are experiencing unprecedented development including non-urban population growth and coastal subdivision. There is an urgent need for a more holistic approach to future development in coastal communities around Australia that recognises the contribution of past land uses and the implementation of sustainable policies and practices that link the environment, people and the economy. Many of these coastal locations share a similar post contact history of a constant effort to create and maintain sustainable communities. Most have experienced several different dominant land uses since European occupation as various political and ideological forces have promoted new ideas and technologies to exploit the available natural resources. Remnants of these past activities, including pre European land use, still remain and have now become an important component of the cultural heritage and tourist product in these coastal regions. The Leeuwin-Naturaliste Region occupies the extreme south western corner of Western Australia approximately 250km south of the city of Perth and is one location that shares this experience.
