Wadandi Boodja

Welcome to the land of the Saltwater People.

There are thee major north>south songline trails used by the Wadandi during 50,000 years of habitation. Well known and now signposted is the cost hugging Cape to Cape Track which makes this the oldest continuously used ‘road’ on the planet.
The track is 110k from to Cape Leeuwin to Cape Naturaliste. There are some good stories about those names that we will save for another day.
We went out to sample some of the track, walking north from Cape Leeuwin’s lighthouse - 3rd tallest in Australia and currently receiving some significant renovation. It’s pretty warm so we kept it brief and headed north in the car in the afternoon to walk some of the Boranup Karri Forests in the Redgate Beach area. Sadly this was the area hit by major fires during Xmas and large areas are closed for safety. A good fallback plan was a swim at Redgate Beach. In fact it was a great backup.Leggi altro
