Wurundjeri Spur Abbotsford Loop (Approx. 14km, 200m elevation - EASY/MODERATE)
Join us this King's Birthday for an inner-city trail walk. Come for a social chat and fitness walk. The loop will involve a mix of paths, both flat and paved but also some more dirt trails with more uneven ground. We will pass through Fairfield and Abbotsford. You will be expected to maintain a moderately fast pace (typical pace for Eastern Hiking and Adventures) to ensure we all stay together as a group. We are likely to finish before 1pm but I have allowed extra time as a buffer.
**Please read all of the following information before RSVP'ing.**
· *Do not FOMO into any of the Eastern Hiking & Adventure events unless you intend to attend, i.e. check the date, the distance and complexity of the walk before joining that walk. Those members who consistently are last minute withdrawals, are no shows or disrespectful to any members or leaders will be asked to remove themselves from that walk and **may be** removed from the group. All the leaders are unpaid volunteers who spend many hours of their own time researching each walk to the best of their abilities at no cost. The organisers attempt to minimise members left on the waitlist (within reason) with priority given to those loyal members who regularly attend walks and provide an enjoyable environment for others.*
**Directions**:
Enter the Melbourne Polytechnic Student carpark from Yarra Bend Road or park anywhere in a car spot nearby and meet at the carpark entrance.
**Fitness Level**:
· A good level of fitness is required as you will be expected to walk approximately 5km/hr and we will have a 15min snack rest in the middle.
**What to bring:**
*2 litres of water
- snacks or lunch
*appropriate walking shoes
- rain/wind/sun protection clothing
*SPF50 sunscreen
- personal First Aid kit
**DISCLAIMER**
· Our events may be difficult and/or hazardous. Eastern Hiking & Adventure organisers will not accept liability for any loss, injury or accident. Participants should take care, wear suitable clothing and footwear, maintain their equipment, and act appropriately in their surroundings and follow the directions of the event leader. You are responsible for your own safety. Ambulance cover is strongly recommended and by RSVP’ing to this event you indicate acceptance of these terms.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Great Victorian Rail Trail: Tallarook to Yea Return Ride (80km)
Join me for a full-day ride on the Great Victorian Rail Trail as we cycle from Tallarook to Yea and then return back to Tallarook.
We’ll be riding around 80 km in total, so this ride is best suited to people with reasonable fitness who are comfortable riding longer distances at a steady pace.
The trail is known for scenic countryside views, relaxed rail trail riding, and the beautiful Trawool Valley section. It should be a great full-day bike adventure for anyone who is comfortable with the distance.
We’ll take the train from Southern Cross to Tallarook, start the ride from there, cycle to Yea, take breaks as needed, and then ride back to Tallarook for the return train to Melbourne.
This is not a beginner ride. Please only RSVP if you are confident riding around 80 km at an average pace of around 15 km/h.

**Rough timeline**
* 6:45am — Meet at V/Line Tickets and Information, Southern Cross Station
* 7:16am — Train departs Southern Cross for Tallarook
* Morning — Arrive at Tallarook and start the ride
* Ride Tallarook to Yea along the Great Victorian Rail Trail
* Breaks as needed along the way
* Afternoon — Ride from Yea back to Tallarook
* Return train options from Tallarook include 5:22pm, 6:43pm and 8:33pm
* Around 10:00pm — Meetup ends, depending on which return train we take
The return time will depend on group pace, breaks, weather, and train availability.
**Tickets**
Attendees will need their own valid Myki / V/Line fare for the train travel.
Please check your own fare and travel arrangements before the day.
**What to bring**
* A bicycle in good working condition
* Helmet
* Front and back lights
* Puncture repair kit
* Lunch
* Enough water
* Snacks
* Weather-appropriate clothing
* Myki / valid public transport fare
* Any personal medication or items you need for a full-day ride
**What to expect**
* Distance: Around 80 km return
* Difficulty: Moderate to challenging due to distance
* Pace: Steady average pace of around 15 km/h
* Vibe: Scenic, practical, relaxed, but still a proper full-day ride
We’ll take breaks as needed, but the group will need to keep moving at a reasonable pace so we can return to Tallarook in time for a suitable train.
**Important notes**
This event is weather dependent and will not go ahead if rain is forecast.
This event is also dependent on V/Line train availability. It may need to be cancelled or changed if there are coach replacements, timetable changes, disruptions, or other major issues.
V/Line currently notes that bicycles can be carried on trains only if space is available, so bike carriage is not guaranteed. Please be prepared for that possibility.
Please make sure your bike is in good working condition before the day. You should be able to manage basic issues such as a puncture, or at least bring the tools and supplies needed.
This ride is best suited to people who are already comfortable riding longer distances. If you are unsure whether 80 km at around 15 km/h is suitable for you, this may not be the right event.
**Other info**
Please check the weather forecast and V/Line service status closer to the day.
The Christophers - 4:20 p.m. Sunday 7/6 at the Nova
“The double act of McKellen and Coel has the onscreen chemistry of the year.” The Guardian.
“McKellen and Coel give a master class in line readings throughout “The Christophers.” It’s a real pleasure watching two seasoned actors bounce off each other in service to creating their characters. It’s even more delightful to see this in a film made for adults that has plenty to say about human nature, love, and the inspirations that fuel our lives.” The Boston Globe.
We will meet at the Nova bar from 3:45 p.m. onwards and meet after the screening to discuss the film. Please book your tickets early as it is a long weekend. Stefan – 0437777522.

**About the Book**
Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks presents Ohio’s eight UNESCO-inscribed earthworks in a richly illustrated volume from Smithsonian Books. This expanded and re-edited edition of the sites’ World Heritage nomination dossier was produced in collaboration with the Ohio History Connection and the National Park Service. The book features illustrated descriptions and histories of these Indigenous masterpieces, summaries of archaeological research, insights from American Indian scholars and leaders, and discussions of the earthworks’ design, construction, and cultural significance.
**About the Author**
John E. Hancock taught architecture, design, and history at the University of Cincinnati for 40 years. He has produced numerous multimedia exhibits and publications about Ohio’s earthworks and served as the principal author and photographer for the Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks UNESCO World Heritage nomination. In addition to this Smithsonian publication (April 2026), he has also released Traveler’s Guide to Ancient Ohio (April 2026).
Come learn about one of the world’s greatest ancient landscapes and meet the author behind this exciting new publication!
