I am looking at doing a section or all of the cape to cape in the second half of
April. Now I know there is info on the web but has anyone done it recently ie
the
last year for info?
Any suggestions on anything that i should know or take other than ususal??
Hi Phil, If you try friends of the cape to cape or go into mainpeak (i know its there may be at other places) and get the track maps and i think there is a...

Yes, getting a map - good start. The book is great. 1. For a short walk from Prevelly - head north across the river mouth. You could go up as far as Joey's...
Greetings, Speaking of the C-to-C, I've got it pencilled in for later this year, when (IF?) it gets cooler. What's the favoured direction, north-south or...
Tony, I like S-N for the simple reason the southern end is more remote. You complete the southern end when fresher. As you go further north there are more...
... Hi Tony I did the walk from Dunsborough to Augusta in November 2001 (?) and walked north - south. Found this was okay, in fact was perfect walking that...
Tony, I did the C to C around the new year break period in the middle of summer & went S to N which I think was better because we had the sea breeze behind us....

Tony, IF you're gonna do the C to C, keep in mind the phases of the moon and the tide tables. There are several sections where you must walk along the beach,...
Greetings, Thanks for the advice on the Cape 2 Cape. Seems south-north is the go. The advice on tide tables is well taken ... tide tables are not the sort of...
Hi Tony, I only had to run (on sand with a pack) a couple of times, to avoid getting wet feet. On the Waterwheel to Deepdene leg there is a section where the...
Hi Paul, Thanks for that. Gee, you blokes are rapidly talking me OUT of the C2C! As to timing, it's flexible, but the bride is off to UK for a couple of months...
Sorry Tony, It is only a 15-20 metre stretch. To get past the headland I mentioned: start walking as the water recedes, gradually getting faster as you...
... What are you doing with your boots on, on the beach Paul? Get them off and walk in bare feet. So much nicer for you and your feet :-) I just put my...
Yes, Andrew, sneakers would have been okay. I'm not keen on bare feet any where. On those beach sections, towards the southern end, there are far too many...
... Hi Paul All I can say is that I walked all the beach sections in bare feet down near the water's edge, often just in the water and it was sweat. I only put...
Hi Anthony, Been keepin tabs on the goings on here, specialy the bit regards the c2c, one of my favourite walks. It would appear the comments we've been making...
Hi Eddy, I like your approach to walking. I too have never seen the need for speed and some organised walks can be a bit of a route march. I'll be in touch...
Hi Tony, and eveyone else, Just completed the C to C from south to north. Definitely the direction to go as the beaches get shorter each one you have to walk....

Hello Gyro, My track name is Buzz Lightyear, and I too have just finished walking the C2C Track (during late march) North to South over 11 days starting at...
Hi Karl, Must be that time of year, myself and two friends just finished the Cape to Cape south to north..... great walk loved it. We are planning to head to ...

Hi all, Cheers to all for all the info in regards to the Cape to Cape, it came in very handy. The lads and i strolled our way south to north over the break in ...
Sad thing Andrew, friend stacked it at foul bay, took the camera out, and the other two brain child's (myself included) left theres in the car before the walk....
