Walk the coast path with volunteers from local Semaphore Largs and Taperoo Dunes Groups to learn about this place, the plants & animals from those that know it well.

Learn about this fragile ecosystem and the valued work of volunteers to educate and protect by restoring natural habitats and minimising threats to the plants and animals that call this place home.

This walk is approx. 4km over a 2 hour period and a moderate level of fitness is needed. We will walk from Semaphore to Taperoo. Walking surfaces include footpaths, soft sand, grass and may include some gentle inclines and declines.
