点评:A big thank you to the Walk91 team for facilitating my fantastic experience walking the Great Ocean Walk! For a woman doing this walk solo, it was reassuring to have someone drop me at the trail head in the mornings, text to check in along the way, and to pick me up at the end of each day. Mark runs a highly co-ordinated set-up and was able to accommodate my requests to swap walking and rest days or to shorten some sections without any trouble.
Mark, Rod, Brad, and Peter know every inch of the walk, and by the end of my trip they felt like old friends. The local knowledge that they shared during pick-ups/drop offs – e.g., the best places to spot koalas, help identifying birds, tips on where to eat, history of the area – enriched the whole experience.
The places that Walk91 chose for me to stay were all top notch, with By Moonlight a stand-out (including a chance to see the bower constructed by the resident satin bower bird). The luxurious and abundant home-made food was a delight to look forward to after each day’s walk - the Moroccan veg stew and the peach cake with cream were especially memorable!
I highly recommend Walk91 to anyone thinking of doing the Great Ocean Walk.
翻译:非常感谢Walk91团队让我能够拥有一次美妙的大洋路徒步体验!作为一名独自完成此行程的女性,每天早上有人把我送到徒步起点、途中发消息关心我的状况,每天结束时又来接我回家——这一切都让我倍感安心。Mark把整个行程安排得井然有序,我提出的调整徒步日与休息日的安排,或是缩短某些路段长度的要求,他都顺利地予以满足。
Mark、Rod、Brad。我和彼得对沿途的每一寸地带都了如指掌;旅行结束时,他们简直就像我的老朋友一般。在接送过程中,他们分享的当地知识——比如观赏树袋熊的最佳地点、辨认鸟类的技巧、值得一试的餐馆推荐以及该地区的历史背景——让整个旅程更加丰富多彩。
Walk91为我挑选的住宿地点全都是一流之选,其中“By Moonlight”尤为出色(在那里我还有幸目睹了栖息于此的彩带园丁鸟构筑巢穴的过程)。每天徒步结束后,能吃到那些精致又丰盛的家制美食真是一种享受——其中的摩洛哥蔬菜炖菜以及配着奶油的桃子蛋糕尤其令人难忘!
我强烈推荐Walk91给所有打算徒步大洋路的人。
