Running north to south along its western edge, is the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park, the setting of the Cape to Cape Walk Track, and backdrop to the Margaret River Region.

Beginning at Cape Naturaliste in the north, the Track meanders through windswept limestone ridges, deserted white beaches, giant granite marbles, and towering Karri forest to finish up at Cape Leeuwin in the south.

The Margaret River Region is renowned internationally for stunning scenery, world-class beaches, gourmet food, and fine wines.


ITINERARY:

Day 1 

Arrive in the historic coastal hamlet of Prevelly 

Arrive in the afternoon and check into your comfortable canvas bell tent located at our glamping precinct set amid gardens at SurfPoint Resort at Prevelly, a stone’s throw from beautiful Gnarabup Beach. Pitched and furnished for your convenience, we provide everything you need for a unique camping experience. From rugs and doonas, to blankets and seating, your tent will be comfortably furnished so you can just relax and enjoy.

When dinnertime comes, you will have everything you need to then cook your own BBQ accompanied by fresh salads, and submerge yourselves in nature and the camping way of life. You’ll also have all the creature comforts with access to the commercial kitchen, common room with wood fire, swimming pool and hot showers at SurfPoint Resort.


Day 2 

Enjoy a relaxing day and explore the true nature of Margaret River by starlight 

Wake up under beautiful cream cotton canvas in luxury and comfort to the sounds of the sea nearby. There’s no need to go far, a local Breakfast Hamper (cereal, yogurt, fresh fruit, tea and coffee, high quality breads, free range eggs and salad items including mushrooms, spinach and tomatoes) and cooking utensils will be provided so you can enjoy a relaxing morning settling into the slow pace of campsite life. Enjoy the beach which is only a short walk from your tent. 

For lunch you have the choice of heading further afield and indulging at one of the many fantastic wineries of breweries throughout the region. If you would prefer to stay local, the White Elephant Beach Café is only a short stroll from the campsite with delicious options also available from the store if you choose. 

At 5pm Cape to Cape Explorer Tours will arrive to collect you from the campsite and take you on the Sunset, Forest and Cave Explorer Tour. You will be spotting wild Western Grey Kangaroo’s grazing the planes, marvelling at giant Karri trees in the Boranup Forest, followed with watching the sunset at one of the most stunning vistas on the acclaimed Cape to Cape Track. Dusk in the doline (a collapsed chamber that forms a cave entry) is an enchanted time, with abundant forest birdlife singing out in the giant old growth Karri trees that tower over head. 

Participants then have the chance to explore the underground wonderland beneath the Boranup Forest via torch light with helmet provided, while learning about the unique history and geology of an amazing limestone cave famous for its enormous wide open chambers and adventure sections. 


Day 3 

Hike to Cape Mentelle and learn about local history

Wake up with the knowledge that more adventures lie ahead. But first you might choose to pop down to the beach for a quick dip! After another delicious breakfast at camp, check out from your glamping bell tent. All you will need to do is collect your personal belongings and zip up the tent on the way out. At 10am, your next Cape to Cape Explorer Tours adventure begins. 

It’s an easy hike with one of our expert guides out to beautiful Cape Mentelle, discovering some of the geology, flora, fauna, bush tucker and surf story of this amazing region. Next learn about Nicolas Baudin’s journey from France to Western Australia in 1800, that led to the naming of Cape Mentelle. Learn of the interesting and surprising link between this magnificent headland and the history of these French explorers. Also learn about Cape To Cape Explorer Tours director Gene Hardy’s surf sessions with Cape Mentelle and Cloudy Bay wineries founder David Hohnen out at Margaret River Main Break, when Dave spoke of ducking off to NZ to plant a few vines.

In the afternoon, you are free to explore more of Margaret River, head onto other adventures in the region, or return home.
