SAPPHIC TRAMPERS – The 2009 Sapphic Trampers line-up offers much more than just going for a walk with a great bunch of lesbians. Come join them as they snorkel in Yanchep, climb the ‘mountains’ of the Darling Ranges, paddle to Penguin Island or down the Moore River, do the Eagle Walk or trace the remains of historical timber rail lines through the jarrah forest, cycle along the coast or through the forests of the Great Western Woodlands. They have something planned something to appeal to most tastes and abilities, from leisurely weekends away and social strolls along the beach to strenuous multi-day Bibbulmum Track hikes for more experienced walkers.
