Transport options St Clair - Cradle

Postby Genesis » Sat 03 Oct, 2015 11:55 am

Good Morning all,

I will be walking the OLT in November and I need to gather some information regarding transport options from Lake St Clair back to Cradle mountain.

I live in the north west and want to be picked up from Cradle visitor center after the walk.

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

Which part are you after Genesis? Cradle to Coast? There are public transport services? Maxwell has a new bus (Cradle Mt Coaches) I see and would be my first local choice, probably for LSC as well.. or (yes) the contractors, mentioned or you can access through the park service site-

Hi Genesis

A friend and myself are also doing the OLT in November, we are planning on leaving our car at Lake St Clair before the walk. Currently we are looking at options to get from Lake St Clair back to Cradle Mountain before we start the walk.

What dates are you planning? We could share a ride together.

Regards,

Andrew
