Tending The Tracks Alliance

Brief:  For the long weekend we are going to Wedged Tailed Eagle Retreat (https://www.facebook.com/wedgedtailedeagleresort/), which is a 40 acre farm property (with a few hundred sheep) out of Boyup Brook.  There are 3 separate campsites and we have opted for bush camping along the banks of the Blackwood River.  There are also a couple of dams on the property as well as the Blackwood River, so children will need to be supervised near the water.  The camp site is suitable for camper trailers and caravans that can be towed across a paddock.

For those who are able to take the time off on the Easter/ ANZAC day week this trip will continue after the Easter Weekend at Warriedar. We will be going through a number of Murchison stations and stopping at as many of the attractions in the area as we can.

Pack a picnic lunch and come for a day trip to Dwellingup. Along the way we shall:

·       Explore the Royal Commission road,

·       Marvel at the railway line that needed 2 trains to operate

·       Search for places of buried treasure

·       See where the steam started

·       Admire artwork produced by visiting European artists

·       Look for a river crossing that’s not there.

And just enjoy travelling through the jarrah forest.

This trip is generally easy going and suitable for Foresters, Outbacks and XVs.

If you want to camp overnight, camping facilities are available at Nanga in the Lane-Poole Reserve (Entry and camping fees apply).

Explore the Wheatbelt following this new trail which has brought world class murals by local and international artists to transform grain silos, public walls and transformer boxes artworks in a number of country towns.

This is a social event suitable for caravans and camper trailers. We will be driving along main roads to view the new public art in Northam, Merredin, Katanning, Pingrup, Newdegate, and Ravensthorpe.

Each overnight stop will be in a town with options to camp, to have a room and to eat out. . This is a trip on made roads except for a short leg where we will explore the Sutherland Track between Pingrup and Nyabing.

Come along to lunch at the historic Noble Falls Tavern Restaurant - a laid-back watering hole turning out sizeable portions of hearty pub food. The tavern is dog-friendly if you eat in an outside area.
