UPDATE MARCH 24, 2020 - COVID-19
For our valued visitors to the Wheatbelt Way, we have prepared the following information to share with you about what COVID-19 may mean if you are thinking about visiting the Wheatbelt Way at present.
Our communities have identified the high traffic areas within the communities and are implementing the recommended hygiene and cleaning practices to keep everyone safe, but as this pandemic situation changes some services and facilities may be limited or may close and not be available in our communities.
Most events across the Wheatbelt Way have been suspended, postponed or cancelled. The Wheatbelt Way Events page has the current status of each event and can be viewed here.
Some accommodation as of the 23 March 2020 is currently temporarily closed including Shire of Trayning Caravan Park and Watson's Way Country Stay. We will keep you advised of this via the Wheatbelt Way website.
We ask that if you are coming to visit the Wheatbelt Way during this time that you are informed (know the facts by sourcing accurate information, from credible sources), prepared and are considerate of the needs of our communities in these challenging and uncertain times.
