Set against the rugged Esperance coastline on WA’s southern coast, the Grounded Esperance Hiking Festival will see hiking enthusiasts explore the many tracks and trails of the spectacular Cape Le Grand National Park.
Now in its second year, this five-day festival promises even more hikes, immersive experiences, and opportunities to get grounded.
There are several hikes on offer, from coastal strolls to summit climbs, each designed to suit everyone from beginners to more experienced hikers and all led by experienced guides.
In addition to the park hikes, the festival also features a program of other activities and events, including hiking skills workshops, live music, sound bathing, and a lunch with local artisans.
A highlight of the festival will be an inspirational keynote talk from global adventurer Tom Smitheringale, best known for his solo expedition to the North Pole.
The Grounded Esperance Hiking Festival is on from 18 to 22 September 2025. For more details and to book, visit groundedesperance.com
