Naturist Walk with afternoon tea & overnight camping option in Yarra Valley
About this event
This is a walk for naturists. We will be walking through an area of secluded bushland in the Yarra Valley (very similiar to the walk last year). Lunch will be beside a small stream, if there's enough water maybe a cooling splash in the creek. After the walk we are invited to a nude afternoon tea at an interesting garden nearby with the option of staying overnight in your own tent.
