Coronavirus: Follow the advice

Member clubs, other hiking / bushwalking groups and individuals must follow the latest published government directives to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and keep themselves and others safe and healthy.

We all hope it won’t be long before our member clubs will be able to fully resume their valuable community role of keeping people happy and active. As at 26 April 2020, activities such as hikes / bushwalks are limited to groups of up to ten and to walk areas located within the restricted travel regions eg Perth-Peel region for Perth residents.

Stay home whenever possible; avoid bushwalk groups of more than ten people; adhere to social distancing rules; no travel between WA regions.

The COVID-19 situation continues to evolve rapidly, so government directives are also likely to change frequently. Follow the government advice to help ensure we all stay safe and healthy!
