**Chatswood to Milsons Point via Lane Cove River 19km (Medium)**

We **meet at Chatswood Train Station by 9:00 am**, just outside the ticket barrier, adjacent to MacDonald's. We then cross the Pacific Highway and enter the rail to river walk, which leads to the back of Chatswood Golf course and the east bank of the Lane Cove River. We strike out, heading south, and 2 hours into the walk we arrive at Blackburn Park for a short break and a snack! **PLEASE BRING SNACKS AS THERE ARE NO SHOPS HERE.**

Back on track, we continue through to Burns Bay and more bush walking which takes us from Riverview to **Central Park Longueville**, where we have a good lunch break. There is a good bathroom here, **AND A GOOD CAFE FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO BUY LUNCH/COFFEE, ETC.**

Following lunch, we head for the Gore Creek Reserve and some sneaky local bush tracks that pass us through Greenwich, Wollstonecraft and Waverton, before finding the line of the harbour to Milsons Point, where members can either get into the trains or join Ted for a tasty beer at Kirribilli Hotel!

We should be at Milsons Point by 4.00 pm.

**Distance:** 19 km

**Type of Walk:** This walk is a full day adventure. About one half of the track is bush walking and the rest along local roads plus parks.

**Difficulty**: Medium, because of the distance but we will not be sprinting! If you are unsure about the distance but would like to test yourself this is a walk for you: there are plenty of get-out points.

**Walking Pace:** We will maintain a steady pace all day and average 4.5 km per hour.

**Meeting Place and Transport:** Meet at Chatswood Train Station; see above.

**What to bring:** Good walking shoes/trail runners; 1.5 litres of water, refill available along the way; hydrolytes; snacks and one lunch; light rain jacket depending on conditions; sunscreen and a cap or hat with a wide brim.

**Suggested Donation:** $10

**Pub:** Kirribilli Hotel, see above.
