The City of Kalamunda officially opened the Bibbulmun Track Northern Terminus Link project last week.

Mayor Andrew Waddell said the track was one of the world’s great long-distance walk trails and attracted visitors and tourists from across the globe.

“The City of Kalamunda has always been very proud to have the iconic Bibbulmun Track start – or end depending on how you wish to walk – here in Kalamunda,” he said.

“The upgrade to the terminus and a designated walkway will increase its visual prominence, connecting the Bibbulmun Track Northern Terminus to the Perth Hills Visitor Centre.

“The interpretive trail leads visitors on a journey from Kalamunda’s Aboriginal heritage and European influences blending art, culture and the natural environment.”

Mr Waddell said artists, Aurora Abraham, Sharyn Egan and Gordon Mitchell worked to bring a strong indigenous influence to the interpretive walk.
