6 Nov, Sat 8:00PM				The Grand Canyon … by night
Grade:2/6		Length	5km	150m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
ALL INTENDING WALKERS MUST BE DOUBLE VACCINATED AND BE ABLE TO PRODUCE YOUR DIGITAL CERTIFICATE UPON REQUEST. From Neates Glen after sunset we will descend into the world of the night creatures and walk through the Grand Canyon, exiting at Evans Lookout Track. The prime reason for doing this walk is to see the amazing displays of glow worms which leave the colony in the Glowworm tunnel for dead with their brightness and sheer numbers. Plus we might see possums, gliders, the odd frog and experience this world heritage walk in a completely different way. People doing this walk are encouraged to do the walk to Mt Victoria beforehand and to stay in the mountains to avoid the long drive home. Care is needed walking in the dark and a good torch is essential. Location: Blue Mountains NP Map: Katoomba 89301S View

If you have ever wanted to see those elusive but ever-so-cute flying ducks, this is your chance..... location to be advised when booking in! However the walk will be along a fire trail and there are many other flowers to enjoy en route! You'll need to keep your eyes alert and be ready to go "wow" and "ooh" and other expletives. Bring lunch with you. Bring a hat. Bring water. And... bring a camera. We may walk 5km... or we might walk 9km.... that will be decided on the day and the weather ... and the inclinations of the entire party.

Grade:4/6		Length	21km	700m	Sydney Branch
Geoffrey.L
The walk from Cowan to Brooklyn is a very popular walk. The nearby walk to Taffys Rock leaves the main track, and is much more secluded, with better views. The walk is good in winter as it mainly follows ridges, and is reasonably exposed to the sun. The track is well marked as far as the turnoff to Taffys Rock. From there it is likely to be marked by cairns, but there are no official markers, Steep and Slippery sections. Some clambering Location: Hawkesbury River Map: Hawkesbury Limit: 12. View
