Melbourne Social Walks - Sugarloaf Reservoir Circuit Trail - Moderate - 15km
Event description
ABOUT THIS EVENT
Join us for another awesome Social Walk with expert guide Ads as we explore the beautiful Sugarloaf Reservoir. This is a 15km loop walk that traverses around the dam wall which overlooks both the stunning Sugarloaf Reservoir and the Christmas Hills and the reservoir itself. On top of that we will also be able to see the CBD from the top of Sugarloaf Hill! Wildlife is highly likely as kangaroos should be hopping through the fields as we walk.
Our Social Walks are a great way to get outside, get your body moving and make some amazing new friends along the way!
