We start from Kissing Point wharf, go along the cycleway alongside Parramatta River, looking out for native birds at Baludarri Wetlands, stopping briefly at the historical Hambledon Cottage before reaching our destination for our shared group lunch ($20). Parramatta signifies Sydney’s urban buzzy renewal so food streets like this won’t last. Return is by train. If eating, please confirm and email culinary/dietary preference. Limit: 15.

The walk begins at Manning Lookout near Fitzroy Falls. Here there are great views over Kangaroo Valley. The walk then follows the escarpment past several view points and along a fence line across a couple of small creeks to Crystal Pool. The water leaves the pool to fall over the escarpment into the valley below. Return by the same route. Indistinct and easily lost track, rough track, fallen trees, slippery rocks and unfenced cliff edges Location: Morton NP (Fitzroy) Limit: 20.

From the heights of Burramoko Ridge we will descend into a world of coolness and calm! The stunning Crayfish Canyon is worth exploring and of course having a swim along the way is always on the agenda! I plan to explore any interesting side gullies and no doubt we will encounter the odd waterfall and cascade along the way. Rock hopping and off-track.

Photography | A trip that has a strong focus on encouraging people to capture photographs.](/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/camera.png) Most people have walked the famous Grand Canyon in the daytime, but have you ever experienced it at night?
Why would you want to do this you may well ask! Well, for starter,s you'll see an incredible display of glowworms that make the Glowworm Tunnel pale into insignificance. If lucky, you may also see glider possums, frogs, crayfish, bats and other denizens of the night. The one thing you won't see is the usual crowds that frequent the Grand Canyon in the daytime. Last time I did this walk we only encountered a couple of people. Bring a torch. Location: Blue Mountains National Park Map: Katoomba 89301S Limit: 20.

Upper Grose wanderings |
Grade:4/6 |
Length |
10km |
200m |
Sydney Branch |
Mark G. |
A walk in the upper reaches of the Grose River which will probably surprise you with its diversity including some truly outstanding examples of pagodas and overhang caves. There should also be quite a few late flowering flowers out too. Expect about 50% off-track walking and some rock scrambling along the way, but nothing too demanding. People booking this will have preference for the night walk I'm planning later on in the evening after dinner. Location: Blue Mountains National Park Map: mt.wilson Limit: 12.
