Regular Activities
We offer an easy to medium morning walk at least once a month usually on a Wednesday and regularly on the weekend. Just some of our popular locations on the Mornington Peninsula include Seawinds, Merricks to Red Hill Trail, a section of Flinders to Somers beach and Coolart Wetlands.
Most Saturdays or Sundays there will be a day walk on our calendar. This could be local to the Mornington Peninsula or further afield to areas such as Toolangi State Forest, Dandenong Ranges, Lysterfield Park or Warramate Hills. The grading of these walks can vary from easy to hard.
At various times throughout the year our keen base campers and back packers hit the trails in more remote areas to expore popular spots like Ritchie's Hut, Cathedral Ranges, Wilson's Prom and Daylesford for 2 or more days of medium to hard walking.
We hold occasional bike rides for novice to more experienced riders. Recent locations include Bendigo, Castlemaine, Bass Coast and the rail trails throughout Melbourne.
Indigenous Guided Walks, Fossil hunting excursions, Clean Up Australia Day outings as well as Brunch walks, and End of year base camps focussing on a social aspect as well as walking and BBQs are just a few of the many varied activities we enjoy.
To ensure our members are provided with helpful and necessary skills to provide the best possible experiences for our members from time to time we provide Leadership Training, Navigational skills and First Aid Training.
Multi Day - Extended Adventures
What an adventure of a life time! 10 very well prepared members took to the daunting, but ultimately rewarding, trails of Nepal in February 2020.
An annual enticement to go north during winter means this is a regular on our calendar. The 62km, multi-day trek through the diverse and ancient ecosystem of Nitmiluk National Park (Katherine Gorge) never fails to deliver!
It's not often that a 10hr catamaran cruise across Bass Strait is the forerunner to a 3-4 day base camp! What an amazing experience to explore the small islands half way to Tassie.
