Looking for a free event that combines a stroll in the bush, beautiful views, a great sense of community and quite a few surprises along the way? Look no further, because it's time again for the annual Walk the Zig Zag festival. Now in its 13th year, Walk the Zig Zag offers the chance to leave the car behind and walk down one of Perth's most scenic roads. Shuttle buses take walkers to the top of the twisting 3-kilometre long road , which follows the route of the Upper Darling Range Railway.


Every year the walk has a different theme and this year's is Walking on Water. Walkers can pick up a passport and stop at stations on the way down to collect stamps and information related to the theme.

The organisers of the walk go all out to provide a range of entertainment and activities along the way. Last year there were fairies, poets, native animals and musicians, and this year promises to be just as varied. The Zig Zag Facebook page will have regular updates but expect to see favourites like the Kalamunda Youth Swing Band, drummers, kites, craft stalls, clowns and more. For weary walkers there are also strategically placed coffee carts and sausage sizzles.


Wildflowers are already appearing making the surrounds even more beautiful. The whole family will enjoy Walk the Zig Zag so if you haven't tried this great community event this is the year to start.


Car parks are located at Stirk Park in Kalamunda and the Maida Vale Reserve. The vast majority of people take the shuttle to the top and walk down but if you'd like a challenge it's perfectly ok to get off at the bottom and walk up.
