New to Bushwalking with Us? Here's Everything You Need to Know
When We Walk
Most Sundays, plus every other Wednesday.
About Our Walks
Every walk is previewed in advance by our walk leaders with distances between 13–18km, so they're best suited to someone with a decent level of fitness. Wednesday walks tend to be less strenuous and of a shorter distance.Click Future Walks program to see what's coming up.
We end each walk with optional coffee at a local café — a favourite tradition, and a great way to get to know the group.
Visiting Before You Join
We warmly welcome visitors — it's the perfect way to see if the club is right for you before committing to membership.
- You are welcome to join us for 3 walks before deciding whether to become a member
- The visitor fee is $10 per walk which does not include any applicable rideshare fee. This fee covers you with Bushwalking Victoria (BWV) Insurance. See how to join a walk below.
- Sunday walk days generally take up most of the day, so plan to set the whole day aside. Wednesdays tend to be half days
Getting There
In most cases we run a member driven car pooling program leaving from a central location. Petrol cost based on distance is paid to the driver on the day
What we recommend to bring
- A backpack for lunch, drinks, and snacks
- A small first aid kit
- Sturdy boots or walking shoes suited to rough bush tracks
- Sunscreen, a hat, and insect repellent
- A shower-proof or waterproof jacket
- Loose-fitting clothing and a thermal layer, so you're ready for any weather
- 2–3 litres of water
