Welcome to the first wildflower walk for the 2025 spring season.

WHERE DO WE MEET?: Meet at the Amiens State School, 1337 Amiens Rd, Amiens at 9.30 am. We will follow each other in convoy to the beginning of the walk.
WHERE WILL WE GO?: Our first walk will see our intrepid walkers amble through towering eucalypts in the Passchendaele State Forest (southern Amiens section) whilst viewing the diversity and abundance of Granite Belt wildflowers in the understorey and at ground level. Along our walk we will see some rare and threatened species, some of which are only known to occur in this area. We will stop for a bite to eat before making our way back to the cars.
HOW EASY IS THE WALK?: Whilst most of this walk is on a formed track, there is some walking over uneven ground and granite slabs requiring walkers of moderate fitness and ability.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE: We usually walk for 2-3 hrs, but people can turn around to return to the cars at any time.
WHAT DO I BRING?: Smoko or lunch, a hat, sunscreen, appropriate footwear, water bottle, insect repellent, a jacket (the weather can change unexpectedly), camera, binoculars, identification booklets.
WHAT CAN I READ?: Several Granite Belt flora publications will be available for purchase prior to the walk commencing.
ARE TOILETS AVAILABLE?: There are no amenities available on this walk.
ARE THERE ANY RESTRICTIONS?: No dogs, no smoking, no motorbikes and no littering.
WHAT ABOUT THE WEATHER?: Check the Consortium's facebook page or website if adverse weather conditions look like affecting our walk.
