Hello all,
I am relocating from NE Vic to WA, and I am keen to meet with people that 4WD out of Perth. I understand there are a couple of clubs and lost to see and do, however personal experiences are the best.
I welcome any suggestions from Perth based 4WDer's.
(I have checked out the trek listing on this great site)
Thanks,
Thommo.

Lots of places not far out of the city to have a great day out 4wdriving.
We use Western 4 WD magazines for a lot of treks close to Perth. Some really spectacular tracks to follow. and the directions are pretty easy to.

Our club opperates out of Mandurah about 80k's south of PerthBush Bappo's 4WD Club

Thommo,

Try this group:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wa_campertrailers

Don't have to have a campertrailer to join. Emphasis is on camping, 4WD and travelling in WA. Lot of members in SW WA getting together for day trips and weekend get togethers.

If you come across the bottom (via Esperance and toward Albany) drop into the Bremer Bay area. A wonderful part of gods country. Bring a fishing rod.

You have to remember (and this is important) that you are never, ever, EVER, allowed to tell the folks back on the east coast what a great place it is over here in the west.

Enjoy your stay here !
