Relaxed Hiker event - Leader, Amanda!

Description of "Relaxed Hiker" - If you’re someone who enjoys a gentle, easy-going experience on the trails, the Relaxed Hiker category is perfect for you. These hikes are designed to be low-impact, covering distances of 5–7 kilometres at a leisurely pace. Frequent stops along the way give you plenty of opportunities to soak in the scenery, chat with fellow hikers, and take a breather whenever needed.

While these hikes are slower-paced and beginner-friendly, it’s important to have a basic level of fitness and stamina to ensure you can comfortably keep up with the group. This helps create an enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

This style is ideal for:

Beginners new to bushwalking.
People looking to ease into hiking while improving their fitness.
Those recovering from injury or returning to exercise after a break.
Anyone who feels uncomfortable hiking alone in the bush.

The focus is on creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can enjoy the journey at your own pace. Relaxed hikes are about building confidence, fostering a sense of community, and making hiking accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

Come along on an adventure through the beloved George Bass Coastal Walk! This stunning cliff-top trail takes us from Punchbowl Road, San Remo to Bass Highway in Kilcunda! Covering approximately 7.2km's

This walk promises jaw-dropping views of the coastline, tracing the path of explorer George Bass's incredible voyage over 200 years ago along the Anderson Peninsula's southern edge.

Get ready for a stunning one-way adventure that will lift your spirits! To make this hike possible, we need your help with carpooling from Kilcunda to our starting point at Punchbowl—just a short drive away. This will ensure everyone can return to their cars after the hike.

We’re looking for five volunteers with cars to meet at 8:15 AM at the public toilets in Kilcunda, where there is a car park available. We’ll share the location link to your mobile.

If you’re able to help with transport, please text us. Amanda will drive all volunteers to the starting point, where we’ll meet the rest of the group.

Thanks for your support! 🚗✨
