About
The HIKING CLUB OF WA aims to provide recreational walking and associated activities in both suburban and country areas for exercise, for an appreciation of our natural surroundings and for social interaction with a friendly group of people.
Our main walks are held on Saturdays throughout the year. These usually take place within 50 km of Perth and include National Parks such as John Forrest, Yanchep, the Avon Valley, Jarrahdale and Serpentine, as well as following little known pathways through suburban parks, along the banks of rivers and streams, beach areas (in summer) and historical suburbs such as Subiaco and Shenton Park.
Our walks are graded from EASY to HARD and can cover distances from 8 km to 16+ km over a reasonable period of time. Throughout the year, we walk through many types of terrain from FLAT to UNDULATING to STEEP HILLY AREAS.
