OUR ETHOS

 Sustainable, Local and Professional.

In all things, we will endeavour to:
 

  • Research all native species, including common, rare, and endangered ones.

  • Acknowledge and report any non-native species to the best of our abilities.

  • Consult with Noongar landowners, pastoralists, and land carers, and show respect for the areas we plan to visit and share.

  • Share information about the local landscape, flora, fauna, history, and culture to enhance the visitor experience.

  • Pets can stress flora and fauna, leave scents, and are prohibited by law from entering parks and reserves.

  • Discourage approaching, touching, or feeding native animals and flora to prevent the spread of diseases unless instructed by the guide.

  • Advise visitors against removing items like wildflowers, seeds, coral, shells, rocks, and fossils from visited areas.

  • Avoid building rock castles/stacks as these rocks are habitats for many creatures.

  • Preserve the country, gates, equipment, and environment as they were found.

  • Watch out for small animals on trails or roads; if possible, stop the tour and move groups away from danger.

  • Offer assistance to other travelers, walkers, and explorers whenever feasible.

  • Collect and dispose of litter properly.

  • Promote green energy and prioritize recycling.

  • Choose recycled paper products.

  • Support local communities by purchasing local supplies.

  • Avoid creating unnecessary trails.

  • Leave only footprints, taking cherished memories and photographs with you

Thank you for your care for our environment.
