Meeting Place & Time: Will be emailed to those that have RSVPd
Rated: On-Track hike. For moderately fit walkers who can walk at a reasonably steady pace for a 6-ish hr. hike
About:
Beginning at the ferry terminal in Nelly Bay, we’ll make our way along Mandalay Avenue up the ridge, and then follow the ridge track towards the Forts junction. From here, we'll do part of the five bays trail, checking out a couple of lookouts before arriving at Florence Bay for a decent break. From Florence Bay, we will continue over the ridge to Horseshoe Bay.
Once in Horseshoe Bay, we could have a few drinks here and find a place to have lunch.
What to expect:
Moderate grade hike. Approximate distance/duration: 13kms, 5-6 hours.
Moderate level of fitness required. Expect some steep and uneven sections - you will need to be comfortable with hills! There are exposed sections, so expect it to be hot in places. The pace will be moderate and continuous, so we can cover the distance within the designated timeframe and enjoy our stops.
RSVP:
Must be over 18yrs to participate Or accepted by committee.
Fee: non-members & visitors - $5. TBWC Club members - Free.
You can become a TBWC member after 3 walks as a visitor.
If you are a new walker/non-member who has not walked with us before – please contact the walk leader before RSVP registration.
