Wednesday ANU walk - old/new architecture, beautiful parks
Details
Come try this very different walk through the beautiful ANU grounds - one of my favourite Canberra walks. We'll wander past some of the best examples of modern architecture in Canberra, as well as some of the first buildings constructed in the newly designated national capital.
You'll also see pretty lake and mountain views, pass through impressive landscaped grounds, and enjoy some quirky sculptures along the way.
This is an on-leash walk only, but there's lots of variety and stimulation for our dogs, including negotiating stairs and bridges, and sniffing bunnies and duck poo!
The 4km route is mainly flat over paved paths, dirt tracks and grassy playing fields. There are some stairs to negotiate. Allow up to 2 hours from parking to finishing up.
See our ANU walk directions and map for more detailed info, but we will start outside Old Canberra House at 73 Lennox Crossing instead of the New Acton Precinct. Please check the location on the map provided with this event info as people often have trouble finding it.
Parking is available in a small car park opposite the entrance to Old Canberra House, off Lennox Crossing.
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.
- All off-leash activities are at the discretion of the walk guide. If for any reason they feel any dog should be back on lead, 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.
