If you are new to the group please make sure you read ALL OF THE INFO in the
"WHAT WE ARE ABOUT" section. Most of your questions should be answered there.
If you have further questions please feel free to email the host of the venue you are interested in.
Our aim is for you to enjoy your venue in comfort and to have you arrive at the end of your chosen venue happy and safe as well as satisfied with your leader as well as your venue.

THE HIKE/WALK:

DISTANCE: 13+ kms....a little more if you include Harry's Trail on the return

ELEVATION GAIN: 104m

TIME: 4+hrs depending on pace and fitness.

BRING: snack/lunch/drink

WEAR: good footwear, clothing for the type of day, leave dry clothes/socks/shoes in car just in case it rains or you are damp from your workout.

SEASON: All year unless there is an unusual circumstance.

MEET UP: 9:30am Hayward Lake Recreation Area Parking lot

An easy walk out and back along an old railway bed with a few up and downs through some forested areas mixed in. We will rest up on the sandy beach for a snack before heading back. If there is interest we can do Harry's Trail at the end.
