The South Coast of WA is home to a pristine and rugged coastline, magnificent
forests, turquoise bays, white sandy beaches and awe-inspiring scenery!

The Walpole Wilderness Gourmet Adventure has been carefully crafted to

South Coast Region has to offer.

Over six days, you will hike sections of the world-class Bibbulmun Track as
well as summit Mt Frankland and Mt Lindesay. You will hike through majestic
karri or tingle forests, summit mountains, experience stunning coastal
clifftops, clamber over ancient granite boulders and even cruise the Nornalup
Inlet.

House Winery will give you the chance to ignite your senses and taste the
regions’ best produce and wines.
