Illawarra Branch's annual visit exploring some wonders of the eastern Budawangs but now that Gadara Point & Ngaityung Falls are defined as in the main exclusion zone for unexploded ordinance our 30+ years of leading that walk has sadly come to an end.

Grade:3/6		Length	76km		Sydney Branch
Richard T.
(Fully Booked) Steal some time off in September 2019. We walk the length of the Great Walk on the Fraser Island at a leisurely pace taking 8 days. We will have two food drops on the way and so the packs will not be too heavy. A lovely walk with a variety of vegetation and scenery, beautiful lakes, and spectacular sand dunes. The tall trees in the Valley of the Giants are a must to see! Spaces strictly limited because of transport requirements along the beaches of Fraser Island. Limit: 13. View

14 Sep, Sat 7:30AM				Little Wobby Beach – Great North Walk – Patonga
Grade:3/6		Length	18km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
(NEW!!!) This is one of my favourite walks for views and blooms in the beautiful Brisbane Waters National Park. From Little Wobby Beach we walk via a system of tracks and fire trails down to the scenic Patonga. If lucky we may see some early flowering waratahs, sea eagles flying past and definitely a wealth of wildflowers. Location: Brisbane Water NP Map: Broken Bay 91301N Limit: 15. View

22 Sep, Sun 9:45AM				Wondabyne to Woy Woy
Grade:3/6		Length	12km	650m	Southern Sydney Branch
Esther C.
(DRAFT - do not publish yet) This walk starts at a small isolated train station, and takes in some great scenery on the way to Woy Woy station. The walk gets most of the climbing out of the way quickly. Once up on the main ridge there are great views along the Hawkesbury River and Mooney Mooney Creek. Highlights of the walk include Kariong Brook Falls and Mt Wondabyne, the highest point in the area. We will catch a taxi from Woy Woy landfill to Woy Woy Station to avoid 4 km of boring road walk. Location: Brisbane Water NP Limit: 10. View

24 Sep, Tue 8:02AM				Spit to Manly
Grade:3/6				250m	Southern Highlands Branch
Sue Ann M.
Scenic walk through bush and coast with lovely views of Middle Harbour and Sydney Harbour. Quite a few steep steps and descent to Manly. Hurried pace in order to catch 4pm train home. A lovely walk in the middle of suburbia. Even walk, few rocks and up and down bush track. Location: Sydney Harbour Limit: 12. View

28-30 Sep, Sat (08:00AM)-Mon (16:00PM)				Colo Meroo
Grade:3/6		Length	24km	580m	Sydney Branch

A 3-day full pack walk from Mountain Lagoon to camp at Colo Meroo on the Colo River. Lovely scenery and a great campsite in the valley near the river. We spend a full day and two nights at the campsite to enjoy the area. Location: Wollemi NP Map: Mountain Lagoon 90313S Limit: 15. View

4-7 Oct, Fri (09:00AM)-Mon (11:00AM)				Namadgi National Park
Grade:3/6					Sydney Branch
Mark G.
Namadgi National Park with its wonderful array of habitats is a great place to explore! Fantastic boulder ridges, alpine frost hollows and bountiful swamps are just a few worth seeing on its expansive system of tracks. This is a car based camp, costing $10 a person per night at the comfortable Honeysuckle Creek Campsite, only a short drive from the nations capitol. I expect to also visit Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve during our stay as lots of wildlife worth spotting within its confines. Optional rock scrambling. Map: Corin Dam 86261N and Rendezvous Creek 86261S Limit: 25. View

12-13 Oct, Sat (10:30AM)-Sun (14:00PM)				Introductory pack walk
Grade:3/6		Length	20km	400m	Southern Sydney Branch

(DRAFT - do not publish yet) This would be very good as a first walk for those wishing to try  out pack walking.  From Hornsby station a few streets and link up with Great North walk. Head to Crosslands reserve (approx. 14km, mostly down hill and relatively easy with one tricky creek crossing) . Camping at Crosslands beautiful spot with water and toilets. Walk out next day to Berowra station (5.5km) . Slippery sections Location: Berowra Valley NP Map: Hawkesbury Limit: 8. View

23 Oct, Wed 9:50AM				Jacaranda Walk
Grade:3/6		Length	15km		Southern Sydney Branch
Esther C.
(DRAFT - do not publish yet) Nothing says summer in Sydney like a street of Jacaranda trees in full bloom. As if Sydney wasn’t already the prettiest city in Australia, we find ourselves living in nothing short of a magical, lavender coloured wonderland. Let's start with the Royal Botanical Garden, cross the Harbour Bridge, and explore the streets of suburbs like Lavender Bay and Wollstonecraft. Jointly led by Kevin Cliffe and Esther. No need to contact leader, but email RSVP is appreciated. View
