Event description
ABOUT THIS EVENT
Join us for our next Social Walk with Ads on Sunday the 1st of December as we head to Steavensons Falls and Keppells Lookout in Marysville. This is a Farewell hike for one of our favourite Social Walkers Leigh Gallagher so let's give her a great send off! It will also be a tough Walk with over 450m of elevation.
Our Social Walks are a great way to get outside, get your body moving and make some amazing new friends along the way!

WHAT TO EXPECT
The Steavensons Falls and Keppells Lookout is a 11km moderate/hard hike (450m of elevation). A good level of fitness is required to complete this trail. The Track is also a 11km loop that takes roughly 4 hours to complete depending on our pace.
The Steavensons Falls and Keppells Loop includes some spectacular sights like the stunning Steavensons Waterfall (with a cascading 122m drop making it one of Victoria's highest waterfalls), beautiful rainforests, amazing lookouts, divine trails and the chance to see some native Aussie Wildlife. There's really not much more you can pack into a single hike!
