Want to know all the ins and outs and what to expect when hiking in Australia's South West? 
Here's our hot tips on what to be be prepared for and what experiences await!

The Cape to Cape Track stretches for 124-kilometres along the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Ridge, between the lighthouses of Cape Naturaliste and Cape Leeuwin in the far south west of Western Australia.  It features spectacular coastal and forest scenery, a fascinating geology of cliffs, caves, headlands and rock formations and an ever-changing display of vegetation and wildflowers.
Designed to bring people in close contact with the environment, the track mainly follows the coast, alternating spectacular sweeping cliff-top views with stretches of pristine beach. There are several inland loops, which take in some lovely, sheltered woodland sections as well as the magnificent karri trees of the Boranup Forest. 

Western Australia has some of the most beautiful hiking trails in the country. Most of them are do-able for the everyday hiker, but some require extensive preparation and experience to get through safely. Whether it’s one of our multi-day wonders like the Bibbulmun Track or a more treacherous hike like Bluff Knoll, here’s what you need to know.

This question is asked nearly every week in the Trails WA group, so we have put together some information that we hope will be useful.
