** Due to difficulties for a number of people, including the leader, getting to this event because of the 25 km restriction, this walk has been rescheduled from Sunday 8 November to SATURDAY 14 November. **
Enjoy a naturist walk in a bush area close to Melbourne. There are great river views, lovely green paddocks of a deserted farm, often with lots of kangaroos, and a tree covered riverside walk. Have a swim if it's warm enough.
GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Medium 7 km naturist circuit walk. The track or route is fairly open all the way, with a narrower track through the forest. There is one moderate hill we will need to climb up and over so we get to the unclothed area faster.
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION:
This walk is for naturists. We will meet at a cafe in Old Warrandyte for a coffee and to meet the others on the walk. At approximately 10:50am we will carpool to the start of the walk, this is 7 km and 10 minutes away.
The walk start is in the Warrandyte State Park at the Jumping Creek carpark, this is 1 km inside the State Park. The entrance is from Jumping Creek Rd. If driving from Warrandyte township the entrance to the carpark is 1 km past Nelson Drive on the left. If you reach Hooper Rd, you have gone 1.5 km too far.
Enjoy the freedom of walking nude in the forest, along the banks of the picturesque Yarra River, and across the open grassed areas of the Warrandyte State Park where there are generally lots of kangaroos. Have a cool off dip if you like and a good relax at our lunch stop.
After the walk: If desired we can return to Warrandyte for a cool off drink or coffee at the Grand Hotel, 110 Yarra St, Warrandyte (COVID-19 restrictions permitting).
MEETING TIME | LOCATION: 10:30am at the "River View Deli Cafe", 262-264 Yarra St, Warrandyte for coffee and registration. There is plenty of parking in the car park by the river, opposite the cafe.
