Saturday Bungendore walk - escape to the country

Join us on an excursion to the little country town of Bungendore, only 20 minutes drive east of Canberra.

This pretty 6km walk will start in historic Bungendore, follow the course of a little creek along a beautiful country lane, ascend 'Spooks Hill' for views across farmland, and return to town via wooded tracks.

This is mainly an on leash walk, but we'll visit Bungendore's off leash field to give our pooches some free play time.

We'll be walking on paved paths, along dirt tracks and across grass. The route includes two short hill climbs.

The walk starts and ends at the verdant Mick Sherd Oval on the corner of Butmaroo and Gibraltar Streets. Just look for the public toilets - and lots of dogs.

There's free, easy parking in a car park next to the public toilets and also on street. You might like to stay on afterwards for coffee or lunch in Bungendore and check out the arts and crafts shops around the town.

Important info:

• You walk entirely at your own risk and you are wholly responsible for your own, and your dog's, behaviour; by rsvping 'yes' to this walk you understand and agree to this condition.
• All off-leash activities are at the discretion of the walk guide. If for any reason they feel any dog should stay on leash, please respect their decision, as they are trying to ensure everyone has a pleasant experience.
• We ask $7.50 per adult to be paid by card to the guide at the beginning of the walk - children (under 18) walk free of charge. The charge helps cover our meetup subscription, insurance, internet, petrol, and other costs. We will gladly refund this if you are not happy for any reason.
