Arthurs Seat to Main Ridge - ONE WAY
Event description
***Kindly note that this HIKE has been designed to promote fitness and will require a decent level of physical fitness to finish. We will maintain a moderate pace during this hike, completing approximately 14 kilometres in slightly over three hours. Therefore, we suggest that you carefully review all event information and ensure that you can keep up with the group. If you don't engage in any physical activity during the week or lead a sedentary lifestyle, this hike may not be appropriate for you. Please check our shorter distance hikes at a more moderate pace***
This walk is not for beginners, I am sorry :(
YOU WILL REQUIRE GOOD STAMINA FOR THIS WALK.
THIS IS A ONE WAY HIKE -
We would greatly appreciate it if some of you could help with transportation. If a few of us could arrive a bit earlier at the finish point, we could carpool back to the start point to meet the rest of the group and begin the hike. This way, we’ll have cars ready at the end to take us back, avoiding the need for buses and extra costs.
If you're able to assist, please let us know! Thank you so much!
Sunday 22nd September we are hiking ONE WAY from Arthur’s Seat State Park to Main Ridge. Approximately 13-15 kilometres.Â
We will follow the Two Bays walking track from Arthur’s seat where we will be blessed with kangaroos, before making our way to Main Ridge. Lush fern gullies await us!!!
This is an exceptional hike that will test your endurance, however the constant chit chat from the group helps move you along without noticing the kilometres turning over. You will love this walk and it will be one to talk about with friends and colleagues!
