Day Hikes Melbourne

Hike: Halloween 🎃 9.8 km Flying Fox Loop + Picnic

* Can't deal with big crowds at the city social Halloween celebrations? * Can't face trying to be cheery at the Halloween parties after a really shite week at work and need a nature fix? 🤔 * Not looking forward to pretending not to be home when trick or treaters knock on your door and the closest you have to a treat are 1 year old CLIF Bars 🧗 you got from the last Banff Film Fesitval? If any of the above resonate with you, then come celebrate Halloween with a walk around the Main Yarra Trail looping through Fairfield Boat House and visiting the Flying Fox colony along the Yarra River and finishing back where we started at Studley Park Boathouse. The circuit is 9.8km long over paved trail or easy dirt trails along the river. Once we get back to Studley Park Picnic area, we'll find a table and grab our picnic food from the cars and have snacks and drinks and wait for the flying foxes to take off overhead to complete our Halloween Evening. Fingers crossed for clear warm weather. I'll be aiming for a brisk pace (10 min/km, 6km/h) on the paved sections, and slowing during the scenic sections. I will adjust to suit the terrain, but be prepared to put in a bit of effort to work up an appetite so you can indulge in a treat at the end! Dressing up is optional. Wear something in theme if you have it. **What to bring:** * Sense of humour * Positive attitude * Adventurous spirit (AKA a tolerance for a lot of crap going wrong) * Picnic food for after the walk. Enough for yourself + a little to share but not too much. * Warm clothing for after the walk if necessary **MEETING LOCATION** Meet at the Yarra Bend Park Walk Meeting point, right next to the carpark for Studley Park Boathouse. Meet at 4:45pm for a prompt 5:00pm start. https://maps.app.goo.gl/m8jAETTK6WnVGYGt8 **LIABILITY WAVER** The organiser of this group cannot accept any liability for any loss, damage, injury or accidents to participants or their property on this event.

Every extra seat means another person gets to join. Fewer cars, easier logistics and a more social, fun start to the day. Carpooling is also a great way to meet people before the hike even begins, share a few laughs, get to know each other, and arrive together. It’s simple, social, and one of the best parts of the experience 🌿 💡 Carpool tickets are offered at a discounted price to encourage drivers to offer seats and make the hikes accessible for everyone. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **For Drivers** If you’ve got spare seats, offering a lift makes a big difference. It helps others join, reduces parking stress and makes the ride more enjoyable from the start. 👉 **For Passengers** Passengers are to contact drivers directly using the details provided in the carpool sheet (linked at the top of the description). The sheet shows information from carpooler tickets (Drivers Offering Seats). ✨ **Best practice:** Try to organise your ride before purchasing a ticket to avoid last-minute stress. 🚽Use the toilet before arriving, as there may not be toilet facilities at the meeting point or along the hike. **Please note:** Drivers and passengers should stick to the arrangements they make. We do not recommend swapping drivers or cars after you’ve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure all parties are clearly informed and agree to avoid confusion. If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesn’t pick you up, Social Hikes Australia (and your driver) are **not liable** for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with. ⚠️ **Important Notes** * Please stick with the carpool arrangement you agree on. * Avoid swapping drivers unless everyone is clearly informed and agrees. * Petrol, parking, and other costs are not included in the ticket price. These should be agreed upon directly between the driver and passengers. * Social Hikes Australia is not responsible for any issues with private carpool arrangements. 📍 **Pick-Up Info** Drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations, such as major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **🤩 Why Join?** 🌟 Make new friends in a relaxed, casual way. 🌟Enjoy nature and fresh air while meeting like-minded people your age 🌟Friendly vibes full of laughs, chats and good times guaranteed 🌟You never know.

We’ll suggest a café or restaurant that’s usually on the way back toward the city, so it’s easy for everyone and avoids extra driving. It’s always a highlight of the day swapping stories from the trail, sharing laughs and getting to know your fellow hikers even better over some good food. Joining is optional, but most people stick around because it’s such a fun way to finish the adventure. Everyone just covers their own meal, and we’ll confirm the spot in the Instagram group chat on the day. When booking, you’ll be asked if you’d like to join: Yes / No / Not Sure. The organisers will confirm the restaurant or bar on the day, based on feedback. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **⚠️ Important:** Must be 18+ years old to attend.
