Walk The Yorke – Stansbury-Giles Point-Wattle Point

This event has passed.

What to expect

Saturday
A bus is hired for End-to-End and Extended walks. Each walker will need to pay the bus fee in addition to their walk payment.
The section from Stansbury to Wool Bay consists of a diversion inland past the Limestone mine at Klein Point. After that though the track weaves through native vegetation with great coastal views across the bay.  We continue past the silos of Port Giles to the Hickeys Point shelter.

Sunday

The trail continues through along the coast through Coobowie and Edithburgh.

Coobowie to Edithburgh is one of the Hero walks of the WTY.

Between Edithburgh and Sultana Point is the Mosaic Trail, lined with more than 40 nautically themed mosaic rock art works created by local people and community groups.

South of Sultana Point the coastline is especially rugged and scenic.

Suggested accommodation – Edithburgh

NOTE – If you wish to walk on only one day, please contact the FOHT office (once bookings have opened) to register for that day’s walk. The on-line registration system will only allow you to register for both days.

A group dinner has been booked at the Troubridge Hotel in Edithburgh for 6.30 on Saturday night.

If the forecast temperature for Adelaide is equal or higher than 32C, walks are cancelled. For simplicity, this can be determined the night prior to the walk from the 7.00 pm ABC News Adelaide weather forecast, based upon the Bureau of Meteorology’s routine 4pm forecast.

Your Walk Leader will send an email to all walkers advising the walk is cancelled. We suggest you check your emails before leaving to join the walk. Even if the forecast temperature is later revised, the walk remains cancelled. In such a case walk fees will be refunded.

If unforeseen circumstances arise and you are no longer able to participate in the walk, please cancel your registration as soon as possible using the Manage Walk Registrations facility on your Account page.

Alternatively you can notify the office by 2.15pm on the last business day before the walk. Walk leaders do not have access to messages left on the answering machine after this time. If your Walk Leader has provided their mobile phone number you may be able to contact them prior to the walk (subject to phone service availability).
