Walking for fitness
Please look up where you are going the night before, don’t rely on GPS, don’t be late, we won’t wait! Also, make sure that you are carrying the appropriate gear including your own personal first aid/safety kit. Our leaders are all volunteers and it is important that you are able to safely complete the walk. All of our walks are graded 3 and above.
Monday am – 3 hour
We walk in bush areas of Sydney’s north shore for 3 hours. Bring your morning tea. RSVP to leader by 8pm Sunday night (text is best). Maximum group size is 12.
