The long weekend is almost here and we think a country escape is just the ticket. @marradongcountry is only 1.5 hours from Perth - think numbats, historic country pubs, conservational woodlands, sensational hiking trails (including Mt Cooke – the highest summit in the Darling Ranges) and expansive landscapes. Get your farm boots on and support the regions get back on their feet.
Head over to @marradongcountry for some post-ISO inspo

After four months of hard work by Parks and Wildli

After four months of hard work by Parks and Wildlife Service crews and contractors, tomorrow morning they will re-open the Bluff Knoll walk trail!

Bluff Knoll or Pualaar Miial (great many-faced hill) is one of many peaks in the Stirling Range National Park that you can visit. Rising 1095m above sea level, it is a formidable presence in the area and according to the Noongar people, is home to spirits that travel in the mists that envelope the mountain almost daily.
From the top of the peak on a clear day you can see far and wide. Look for the Porongurups to the south, the coastline and Mount Manypeaks to the south-east and extending west are the other big peaks of the Stirling Range.

Located about 100km north of Albany in the state’s south and 400km from Perth, the Stirling Range National Park is easily accessible by 2WD cars.
Bluff Knoll is famous for the 6km return walk trail that takes you from the car park all the way to the summit. While WA doesn’t have the big mountains that other states do, the 3km trail to the top is pretty much straight up. Averaging a 20% gradient, it is a challenging hike that catches some people out with its difficulty.

More than a third of the park was impacted by a bushfire that started from multiple lightning strikes between Boxing Day and the New Year, with walk trails severely impacted by fire. More than 50 tonnes of material was brought in manually and by helicopter, with only hand tools used to replace all steps and water bars on the trail and install a new 5.5m pedestrian bridge about halfway along the trail.

Bluff Knoll is the only place in WA where you will have a good chance at seeing snow on a regular basis (a couple of times a year). When the cold fronts come in and the conditions are right then the summit becomes a winter wonderland for an hour or two (usually at sunrise). For those brave enough to wake up before dawn and climb up to see this spectacle then make sure you come adequately prepared for the conditions.
