Hiking the Bibbulmun Track

This is the illustrated story of an end-to-end hike on the magnificent West Australian ‘Bibbulmun Track’, in the very wet winter of 2021. Geert van Keulen started in Kalamunda in the Perth Hills and finished in Albany on the south coast. He camped, stayed at the shelters in the campsites and sketched his journey from start to finish. All of his sketches are placed in this book combined with anecdotes and stories of his adventure. He describes the scenery, the physicalities and the people he met on the track.
