If you're looking to get into hiking and meet like-minded women who enjoy the outdoors, this is a fabulous meet-up to join.
This trail is quite picturesque, offering panoramic views of the Grose Valley. However, it should be noted that the terrain is uneven and hilly, so it is recommended that only those who are confident and fit enough to walk on such terrain for 3 hours attempt this walk. If you decide to go for it, be sure to bring along your walking stick and camera, as both will come in handy along the way.
We will meet at Hathill Road Carpark (Just before the National Parks gate) at 8.30am. See photo of the carpark below + a link to the meeting location here.
