Join Rainer Rehwinkel and Julia Landford for a free expert guided walk through Stromlo Woodland.

Rainer will help us discover what makes Stromlo Woodland ecologically special — its remarkable plants, animals and landscape. Julia will guide us into nature journalling, exploring how to slow down, look closely, and connect deeply with place. Together they bring ecology, art and conservation into a single unhurried morning.
