In this month’s episode of Trail Tales WA, we’re switching it up. Tracy Jones is in the hot seat and the lady behind the scenes, Cindy Jones is hosting. We’ll be exploring a story built on passion, persistence, and the belief that nature should be accessible to every body. Tracy — Founder and Director of Off The Beaten Track WA, creator of Hike Ability, and one of WA’s leading voices in accessible tourism — is joining us to talk about how it all started, the meaningful work behind OTBT and the profound impact inclusive hiking has had on people with disabilities, families, carers, and communities across Western Australia.
As we dive deeper, we’ll also reflect on a special milestone in Tracy’s journey: being awarded Gold in Excellence in Accessible Tourism at the 2023 and the 2025 Perth Airport WA Tourism Awards and most recently took home the Bronze for the Excellence in Accessible Tourism at the 2025 Qantas Australian Tourism Awards (that’s recognition on a national level!!) — a moment that recognises far more than a program. It celebrates lives changed, barriers broken, and a community committed to making the trails welcoming for all.
