Walk the Yorke End-to-End

Description

The weekend will be two sections along the Walk the Yorke

 

Section one: Port Rickaby to Port Milacowie (20km)

The varies trail will cover beaches and inland tracks that wind through coastal sand dunes and farmlands. Bring your camera, as the bird life is a real treat. Weaving onto and out of the beach, experiencing a rock pool eco system. We will come across old wooden davit structures at the base of the cliff, which were once a part of a manual boat-winching system.

Section two: Port Milacowie to Point Turton (21.5 km)

Starting the day with a spectacular beach walk, complete with rock-pools and bird life we go back in time when we arrive in Hardwick Bay, full of traditional holiday shacks. We continue our walk to Flaherty Beach, which earned acclaim in a 2021 TikTok video as 'the best beach you've probably never heard of'.

BIOSECURITY MEASURES – Please ensure you thoroughly clean your footwear, clothing, walking poles and other equipment before and after each walk to remove all seeds, dirt and other debris. Removed seeds should be bagged and disposed in a ‘to landfill’ garbage bin.
