Werribee Gorge Circuit Walk (8-10km)

The Werribee Gorge Circuit Walk provides excellent views along the gorge rim. There is an exciting 50 metre section of cable handrail to assist walkers on tricky high angle rock above the river upstream from Meikles Point Picnic Area. The circuit is about 8-10km and Grade 3, meaning a moderate level of fitness is required, walking on uneven ground with many steps, some rock hopping and steep hill sections involved.

Assuming the weather and restrictions allow, we will be meeting the Quarry Picnic Area at 10:00am and departing at 10:10am. Please allow enough time for parking as the park can get quite busy on weekends.

Bring a drink bottle, a light lunch, and hand sanitiser as we will take a brief break mid-hike to eat lunch and enjoy the views.

Note: While this is a hosted event, all hikers are responsible for themselves and attend at their own risk. GEGP[M] takes no responsibility for any injuries sustained during the hike. Hikers are expected to wear appropriate shoes, sunscreen, and provide their own food and water.

𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬:
• Let's keep things respectful. Our group has a diverse range of members and we get along great! This is because we accept one another, avoid insensitive comments, try to keep swearing to a minimum, and steer clear of gossip and mindless venting.
• Please be punctual. Our hosts will check the Meetup page and post their location upon arrival before redirecting their attention to the people present. If you are late (more than 5 min), don’t expect to be able to reach them as they may not check their phone. Please allow enough time for travel and parking. (On that note, we don't organise carpooling because of various liability issues.)
• If you say you're going to come, then please actually come. Many of our events end up waitlisted so if you claim a spot and don't show up, then someone else might miss out. Attendees who don't show up (or cancel their RSVP within 12 hours of the event) will be flagged as "no-shows". Repeat "no-showers" will be banned from the group to make space for more reliable attendees.
• We want to keep all our members safe and healthy so if you are unwell, then please stay home. If you need to cancel within the 12 hour "no show" window, please send a courtesy message to the event host.
• Please don't come if you are just looking to hit people up for your own agenda. Our members are so much more than followers for your Instagram account, customers for your Herbalife business, or people for your Forex empire. In our community, we are about adding value to one another. If you are just coming with a self-serving agenda, then we aren't your crowd.
• And finally, this isn't a great group for people who like wallowing in life's problems. We choose positivity and gratitude, so bring some with you!
