Expressions of interest required

This walk is being run specifically as a leaders training day, following Cherry’s suggestion to build confidence and capacity within the Club. The aim is simple - create more walk leaders. This is not an exploratory epic, but a structured off-track day focused on decision-making, navigation, pacing, risk assessment and group management. If you are interested in gain some skills and leading some walks for the Club, then this is the walk for you.

Easter long weekend overnighter - Cape Cleveland to Paradise Beach

Wilfred is leading a two-night Easter overnighter to one of North Queensland’s classic coastal wilderness routes. The plan is to walk from Cape Cleveland out to Paradise Beach on Friday, camping near the freshwater creek. On Saturday, the group will traverse from Paradise Beach up to the saddle with Long Beach (Bedwell Bay) and then return via Castle Rock for expansive views over the rugged coastline before heading back to camp. Sunday will be the walk out the same way we came in.
