Whiteman Park, Swan Valley

Come to scenic Whiteman Park to try OWA's first bush event for 2021! Spend your Sunday morning exploring the park while looking for hidden orange and white flags, then continue to enjoy the park in a more traditional manner after you are done with your map!

The area is generally flat and sandy with kilometres of fences and thousands of kangaroos (beware of ticks). Navigating in Whiteman Park is not difficult but your route choices will be determined by out of bounds areas and the many barbed wire fences.

Courses:
H1-H4, M, E and VE. More details are in the Information Flyer.

Pre-enter via Eventor (entries close at noon on Saturday May 1).
If you do not have an Eventor account, click on ‘Create Account’ and follow the prompts.

On the day registration: from 9:00 - 11:00 am. Even groups can enter through Eventor! If registering on the day, be sure you arrive in plenty of time.

Instruction available: Need help? Instructors will be available to assist you with any queries you have.

Bring: your SI card if you have one, or borrow one at the event. Also bring sunscreen, hat, water bottle, and insect repellant to ward off the ticks.

Start times: 9:30 - 11.30 am 

Courses close: 1:00 pm

Facilities: Toilets

Getting to the event: Eventor has directions to the event and also has a Whiteman Park map that will help you find your way to the assembly area west of Mussel Pool. Park north of the toilet block where we had the 2020 OWA function.
