Great stories and background information around the Weano gorge and surroundings.
Reconnecting with Nature Leighton was a wonderful host, friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable and generously shared his experience and personal story. It was amazing to reconnect with our beautiful Kings Park and as a local I wondered why I don’t visit it more often. I enjoyed getting to know the other hikers and what a great group I was fortunate to walk with, lots of interesting conversations. The weather was rainy at times but we unitedly squelched together in our soggy shoes to reach the end. A thoroughly inspiring walk and I look forward to doing more. Thanks Hike Collective!

Hike on Rottnest Island Leighton & David were excellent guides. Their talks were informative, funny & entertaining. They included many interesting facts about the island plus animals from other areas around PerthSarah was amazing with her knowledge, demeanour and delivery to a range of ages and backgrounds. I would highly recommend any tour that she is delivering, and she definitely provided a lot of value to all the participants (My kids included). She even convinced one of my friends kids to become a ranger …. She’s only 9 years old!!!!
Thank you to the Hike Collective for your input
Loved the experience and beautiful views after the rains. Lovely experience with beautiful views.On the down side, the guide battled to keep a reasonable pace, even strolling he needed to stop. This left the group splintered as some slowed down and took the opportunity to enjoy the fauna and flaura, whilst others forged ahead, especially on the return trip.
On the plus side, his knowledge of photo composition was an unexpected bonus.
Even though the weather was cold wet and windy sarah our hike host was such a bubble of brightness full of smiles and enthusiasm and very informative with flora fauna and wildlife information
The cave experience was nice and yoga short but sweet
Highly recommend taking any hike with the hike collective
Thank you
An experience I will remember fondly
Karijini Night Sky - Expensive and disappointing This tour came highly recommended by a family member however the reality did not meet up with the expectations. It came across as a regurgitation of a huge number of facts, rather than a passionate person sharing their interest. The telescope was not very big, and what you could see through it was not that good to be honest. It was a freezing cold night which is obviously not the tour operator's fault, however the promised hot chocolate would have helped a lot. I was the last of the five to get mine, and I got half a cup of barely tepid, very weak, drink.
I always try to find something positive to say, but am struggling with this one. We both felt that $70 each was way too much.
Stargazing in Karijini NP Stargazing in the Dark Skies above Karijini NP. This was an enjoyable experience learning about the Night Sky. The guide was knowledgeable and easy to follow. Some areas for improvement - the hot chocolate was horrid, the guide needed a laser pointer and sadly, there were camp sights directly behind the telescope which corrupted our night vision. The guide is aware of my thoughts as I told her on the night.Well done Kate for setting up such a great business. Krystal made a great guide, was informative for the hike. The yoga in Cabaret cave was amazing. Thank you
Erin is a friendly and professional guide who shared her knowledge freely.
add it to your list! We had a great guide. The group was friendly and fun!! It was really enjoyable and evenly paced for my first hike :)
Bold Park Hike Our guide was friendly and very Informative and even though it was a very hot it was a pleasant hike.The hike was very simple, very informative and the weather was perfect.
An enjoyable hike around John Forrest National Park. Erin and Bernie were excellent guides being informative, maintaining an appropriate pace and assisting the group in navigating the trails. Extending the hike to Glenbrook Dam was a great idea. A great morning out for my first Hike Collective adventure. Looking forward to the next hike.
We are so lucky to have these beautiful walks in out back yard, and so lucky to have Hike collective and staff to make them so accessible.
Thank you Erin and Renate and Hike Collective, I will certainly be booking more walks.
Kings Park hike and bubbles Beautiful autumn weather for an afternoon enjoying the natural beauty of WA in the Botanic gardens and surrounding bush land. The guides shared their local knowledge and a few surprises. The grazing platter and champagne was a perfect finish to our day.
A memorable adventure ✨️ It started with yoga in a cave, followed by a surprisingly easy hike with beautiful views and moments to take it all in and be very present with nature the whole experience was so unique and such a fantastic way to spend your Saturday morning, will definitely be joining the hike collective again for future different adventures.
