Greens Bush (Boneo Road) - Fitness Hiker 10km

FITNESS HIKER - Event Leader - Michael

Description of a "Fitness Hiker": A fitness hiker enjoys walking with purpose, maintaining a moderate to brisk pace throughout the hike. These hikes, ranging from 10-20 kilometres, are focused on building endurance and challenging the body, often leaving you a little sweaty by the end. Your heart rate will increase!!!

Expect a mix of terrain, including sand, inclines, and steps, designed to keep your heart rate up and maximise calorie burning.

While the pace is faster and breaks are fewer, there’s still time to pause, catch your breath, take in the surroundings, and capture the moment with a photo or two. Fitness hikers value the balance between intensity and enjoyment, pushing their limits while connecting with others who share the same goals of staying fit and active in the outdoors. These hikes are perfect for those who want to elevate their fitness and enjoy the challenge of more demanding trails.

Join us for a breathtaking adventure through Greens Bush in the Mornington National Park! Immerse yourself in the beauty of this stunning natural haven, where wildlife abounds. Spot kangaroos, echidnas, and a variety of birds as we stroll beside the serene Main Creek. As we venture deeper into the lush forest, surrounded by enchanting fern gullies and eucalypt trees. Keep your eyes peeled for koalas—we’ve seen a few in this area! With numerous trails to explore, we’ve carefully planned a beautiful route for you to enjoy.

Don't miss this opportunity to experience nature at its finest!
