Flinders - Cairns Bay (8am)
Event description
***Kindly note that this HIKE has been designed to promote fitness and will require a moderate level of physical fitness to finish. We will maintain a steady pace during this hike, completing 7 kilometres in slightly over two 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***
We are thrilled to share this hike with you all as it is simply beautiful. This hike offers breathtaking views across Bass Strait from the dramatic black basalt cliffs, which are impressively high!
Our plan is to visit Cairns Bay and then head to Flinders Blowhole and back. The track can be steep in places, so it requires good leg strength and the ability to handle a steep incline. Although the distance is shorter than usual, I guarantee you'll get a solid workout and absolutely love this hike! It will take approximately 2 hours to complete.
We maintain a steady pace but do stop occasionally for photos and snacks.
