ITINERARY:

Backpacker Hostel
Day 1 -
Perth to Augusta (H)
Departing Perth early we make our way south down the coast
road via Mandurah and the Dawesville Cut, a man made canal
between the Indian Ocean and the Peel Inlet. Further south
we make our first stop at the Dolphin Discovery Centre on
Koombana Bay in Bunbury. Here we have time to stretch our
legs and learn all about the dolphins that make this area
their home. If we are lucky the dolphins will make one of
their frequent visits to the beach. We then journey down through
the majestic Ludlow Tuart Forest, the largest remaining Tuart
forest in the world, and on to our next destination, the Busselton
Jetty. Here we take time to marvel at the historic jetty and
take in sweeping views of Geographe Bay. Back on the bus and
onto Yallingup for lunch and a tour of Ngilgi Cave. After
lunch we make a short stop at Canal Rocks before making our
way south along Caves Road where we have the chance to stop
and sample some wine at one of the many wineries that have
put Margaret River on the map. Next stop is the famous surf
break of Margaret River (Prevelly Park) before going into
Margaret River itself for a look around. The first day is
drawing to a close so we make our way to our first nights
accommodation at Augusta
Day 2 - Augusta to Albany (H)
We wake this morning to the sights and sounds of the south
west. After breakfast we make our way towards the Karri forests
to the largest challenge of the tour, the 60 meter plus climb
to the top of the Bicentennial Tree. The Bicentennial Tree
is the highest tree top lookout in the world. We need a short
break to recover from the breathtaking views before we depart
for our next destination, The Valley of the Giants and the
Tree Top Walk. Here we have the opportunity to take a walk
through the canopy of the ancient Tingle forest, 40 meters
above the forest floor. It's not long before we are back on
the bus making our way towards William Bay National Park.
We take time out here to view the large granite formations
known as Elephant Rocks and to take a dip in the clear waters
of Greens Pool. The sun is high in the sky and it is time
to head east taking a short break in Denmark before we finish
the day by checking out some of the south's natural coastal
phenomena The Blow Holes, The Natural Bridge and the awe inspiring
The Gap. A long day has ended and we retire in Albany for
our last night together. (BLD)
Day 3 - Albany to Perth
We start the morning with a drive to the top of Mt Clarence,
which will give us spectacular views of King George Sound,
the outer islands and the Albany township. From here we stop
at Middleton Beach with the chance to walk along the heritage
boardwalk, have a coffee in the cafe or just walk along the
beach. Mid morning we start our journey north on the last
leg of the tour. En-route back to Perth we stop to climb Castle
Rock in the Porongurup Ranges and take in the breath taking
views of the surrounding countryside and the Stirling Ranges.
All too quickly it is time to make our way through the wheat
and sheep farming district of the great southern and back
to Perth. (B,L)
