🌆 Route & Sights (in order of appearance)
- Luna Park — We gather under the iconic grinning face at midday. The beach air, the weekend buzz, and the easy starting terrain set the tone for a relaxed social walk.
-
St Kilda Foreshore — A breezy coastal stretch with open views, kite surfers, and the long curve of Port Phillip Bay. This is the warm‑up section: flat, scenic, and perfect for early mingling.
-
Albert Park Lake — We loop the northern edge of the lake, passing swans, rowing crews, and the skyline reflections. The water gives the walk a calm middle chapter before we head uphill.
-
Shrine of Remembrance — A gentle climb brings us to one of Melbourne’s most striking vantage points. Expect city panoramas, stone terraces, and a moment of quiet before the urban section begins.
-
East Melbourne — Leafy streets, Victorian terraces, and the feeling of slipping through a pocket of old Melbourne. This is the transition zone between parkland and inner‑city energy.
-
MCG Gardens — We pass through the sporting precinct’s green belt, weaving between elms, lawns, and the hum of weekend foot traffic.
-
Fitzroy — The final stretch takes us into Melbourne’s bohemian heart. Street art, laneways, and the rising energy of the Fitzroy/Northcote bar hop.
-
Naked for Satan — Our endpoint. Drinks, rooftop views, and the perfect segue into the evening’s social chaos.

⚠️Group Rules & Event Etiquette ⚠️
These are basic, commonsense standards that keep events safe, smooth, and enjoyable for everyone.
👟Fitness Requirements
Walking: 4+ km/hr. Moderate fitness. enough to walk 25 km with limited stops
We walk at a moderate pace. Please ensure you meet the fitness level for the event. If the group is forced to wait excessively, you may be asked to leave the event.
⛹️ Your Pace: Too Fast or Too Slow
Small social events rely on staying together. If you prefer a very different pace, consider going solo, joining a faster/slower group, or choosing events that match your fitness.
👩💼Time Constraints
If you’re on a tight schedule, this may not be the right event. Social activities rarely run exactly on time.
👥Waitlist & Gender Ratios
To keep things balanced and comfortable:
Event capped at 12 people, if my star signs are in favour i may increase this.
Generally guys admitted only after a woman registers (to maintain ratios) at my discretion. Group regulars get priority access.
Women can be a little flaky (we love them anyway), so I may accept 1–2 extra.
🧭The Creep Code
A refined social compass keeps the vibe safe, fun, and drama‑free
So: No married/Seperated individuals or those already coupled up (generally) unless I know you.
No Tinder Swindler‑style mingler
Guys: Please Take Special Note
Must have a clear face photo (no sunglasses, no blurry shadows, no “mysterious man in witness protection”
Don't send unsolicited messages, that's creep gold.
⚠️Don't obscure your identity in other words
No wide shots taken from a distance where you can't be identified
No yacht/car/jet flexing — if your profile screams “crypto‑adjacent”, you will be gently declined
If you are declined, update your profile photo to something less creepy and more classy
Girls: No restrictions — privacy and safety first
⚠️CRITICAL EXPECTATIONS⚠️
😢No‑Shows
No‑shows block waitlisted people from attending and disrupt small-group events
***Remove yourself more than 24 hours before the event, cancellations within 24 hour of the evevt when there is a waitlist will result in group removal and likely blocked
People on the waitlist require more than 24 hours notice that they have been approved to attend.. Flaking within this time period prevents waitlist people from attending
No‑shows will be removed from the group and likely blocked.
*Last‑minute cancellations (“flaking”) may also result in group removal, especially when there is a waitlist
👀 Attending Without Being on the Going List
This is a security issue
Do NOT turn up unannounced
If you’re not on the Going list and haven’t arranged it with the organiser beforehand, you will be asked to leave. Event check‑ins are performed
⏰ Late Arrival
If you’re late, the group will not wait
You willl be marked as a No‑Show and removed from the group
Messages will not be monitored after the event start
It’s your responsibility to communicate and catch up before the evevt starts—this may not be possible for some events as the organiser is busy organising
🎲Second Chances
If something goes wrong, communicate with the organiser. Silence + poor behaviour = removal. Communication + accountability = second chances. As the organiser is busy organising this may be impossible during the event
