TFA Hikes the Yonga Trail

One of the things we do at TFA is go on an annual hike. Together and overnight. This comes more naturally to some than others.

The ritual started last year as a way of managing our despair in the days following the Voice Referendum. We walked part of the Cape to Cape trail in WA’s south-west and felt better by the end.

This year, we tackled the Yonga Trail, a 26km loop through Lesueur National Park. The landscape was a surprisingly beautiful mix of wandoo woodlands, valleys, Kwongan Heath country, wildflowers, orchids, relentless flies and a couple of ticks.

In true TFA style, there were lots of tea breaks, G&Ts with ice (a revelation) and hot chips in the car on the car on the way home. Anyone got any suggestions as to where we should go next?
