Koonya Beach, Blairgowrie - Sunset hike - MID PACE

FRIDAY NIGHT SUNSET HIKE!!!

***Kindly note that this walk has been designed to promote fitness and will require "some" fitness to finish. We like to keep a steady pace during our hikes, completing 10 kilometres in slightly over two hours. Definitely not a power walk, however there will be some inclines and soft sand. 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 distance might not be appropriate for you at this stage. Please check our shorter hikes***

This is an absolutely lovely walk starting from Blairgowrie's back beach, heading towards Rye. We will be walking on the spectacular coastal track. I have meticulously mapped out this hike to give you the wow factor without going too crazy with the kilometres. If you're looking for some fitness to get you a little sweaty then the coastal track will give you that. If you're looking for incredible views and hopefully some rock pools, then you are in for a treat with this walk and not to mention a gorgeous SUNSET!!!

Let us guide you to new heights!
