About Us

The UWA Outdoor Club is a fun and cheap way to get involved in outdoors activities and to have a great time doing it! No matter what skill level you have, from beginner to advanced, the club can offer activities to suit you. As a member, you not only have access to a lot of great gear, but the club's instructors are only too happy to get you enthused and addicted to outdoor sports!

Outdoor pursuits are not restricted to the Tom Cruises of the world. You may be surprised at how easy a lot of activities really are and how quickly you too can look like a pro. And at the end of the day you can feel justified in lazing around, enjoying good food and drink, because you've worked hard to earn it!

So what does the Outdoor Club do? Some of the outdoor activities we pursue are:

  • rock-climbing
  • kayaking
  • windsurfing
  • cycling
  • rogaining (orienteering to a time limit)
  • bush-walking
  • adventure racing

Many club members also go trekking, mountain-biking, ice-climbing and more and are keen to find like-minded people. So if you're looking for adventure with a friendly bunch of people, look no further!

Why Join?

Ever wanted to hurtle down a grade 4 rapid or be able to negotiate cliff faces like Tom Cruise? Does the thought of screaming across glassy water at 70kmh on nor more than a board make your eyes light up? Or do you like pushing your body to the limit on an all-night crusade through harsh terrain in the pursuit of glory??

Yes?? Well then, the UWA CLUB IS FOR YOU!!

Maybe you are just wanting to meet new friends and enjoy weekend trips down south to Margaret River or up north to Cervantes. Maybe a lazy paddle at dusk in Matilda Bay, or a casual trek up Bluff Knoll is more your style. All this and more is available through the UWA Outdoor Club.

Social events are plentiful, and run throughout the year, so if you enjoy the odd cask of red wine (you know you do!) JOIN UP NOW!!!

Does a mid-year 3 week trip for under $600 to the heart of the Pilbara, the tropical Kimberley Region and exotic coastal locations like the world renowned Ningaloo Marine Park tickle your fancy, then WE WANT YOU!!

As a member of the UWA outdoor club, you will have access to experienced and very good looking instructors, along with over $20,000 worth of kayaking, climbing, windsurfing and other gear. HOW GOOD IS THAT!!

If you need more excuses to get your butt of the couch and get outdoors and enjoy your youth, then have a chat with any one of our enthusiastic members.
