Family Guided Nature Walk - 17 May 2026

Join us for a FREE fun family guided walk in nature!

Looking for a fun, healthy way to spend quality time with your children? The Family Hiking Program is hosted by HikeWest and designed for families with children aged up to 12 years — no hiking experience needed! This short bushwalk guided by the WA Family Bushwalking Club is an ideal outing for those seeking an introduction to walking in nature in the Perth Hills.

✔ Explore a section of the iconic Bibbulmun Track
Experience a peaceful walk on the Bibbulmun Track in Beelu National Park, passing through beautiful jarrah forest, dotted with balga and zamia. Visit a typical three-sided timber shelter along the track - the Hewett's Hill Campsite - before returning to the start point, after a total 5 km walk. Meet at the side of the Calammunda Trail Hub, 361 Paull's Valley Road, approximately 15 minutes from Kalamunda.

✔ Boost Family Wellbeing
Enjoy the physical and mental health benefits of outdoor activity together. Our hikes are designed to be fun and engaging for children — and relaxing for adults.

✔ Strengthen Family Bonds
Hiking is a great way to unplug and spend real quality time with your kids, away from screens and daily distractions.

✔ Grow Outdoor Confidence
You’ll gain practical tips and tools to make bushwalking safe, enjoyable, and engaging for the whole family.

✔ Build a Love of Nature
Children will connect with nature through guided activities that spark curiosity and environmental awareness.

✔ Meet Other Families
Our group walks are a chance to connect with like-minded parents and build lasting friendships — on and off the trail.

A light snack will be provided during the stop at the Hewett's Hill Campsite.
