Leave No Trace
These rules have been developed to promote responsible and courteous conduct on shared-use trails and purpose built trail networks.
Walking the Yorke
• Stay on the marked trail
• Cyclists should give way to walkers
• Take all rubbish with you. Do not bury along the trail.
• Leave gates as you find them. Use stiles when provided
• Move quietly near stock and wildlife
• Respect the privacy of others, including other walkers and landowners
• Respect Aboriginal culture and country
• Do not trespass on private land
• Help keep the water sources clean. Carry drinking water with you.
• Observe fire bans
• Do not disturb native flowers or other vegetation
• Camp only in designated campgrounds
Keep on track
Try to minimise your impact with every step you take.
Always walk in the centre of the track and be prepared to walk through the mud. Attempting to skirt around bogs only makes them bigger and causes more environmental damage.
Please walk below the high tide mark, when on beaches, to reduce danger to shore-nesting bird like the endangered Hooded Plover.
Shorebirds nest from early Spring to late March.
