Walk & Coffee: Gardiners Creek-Anniversary Trail 9km for beginners
Details
***
Enjoy a structured Sunday morning walk designed for people who want to build walking fitness and prepare for longer walks or hikes.
This is not a social or chat-focused walk. We’ll maintain a steady, consistent pace to help build endurance. While this is still suitable for beginners, participants should be comfortable walking continuously and aiming to improve their fitness over time.
The total distance is approximately 9 km, starting on the Anniversary Trail, crossing onto the Ferndale Trail, and returning to the start via the Gardiners Creek Trail. The route follows well-maintained paths and is ideal for practising longer distances in a controlled environment.
After returning to the starting point, there will be an optional coffee stop at Jack and the Beans Talk Café near East Malvern Station for those who would like to join. The coffee catch-up is optional and separate from the walk.
This walk is suitable for:
- People preparing for longer walks or hikes
- Those wanting to build distance and endurance
- Beginners who are ready to walk continuously at a steady pace
The pace will be moderately brisk but not fast compared to my longer evening walks. We will not be stopping often regroup. I will pause at the turns to help ensure no one misses them. By attending, you agree to match the pace and stay in sight of the group or be comfortable navigating your own way around.
What to bring:
- Water bottle
- Appropriate clothing if it's windy or possibility of rain
- Hats/Sunglasses/Sun protection if it's sunny
