So I am looking for an excuse to get out and about Sunday afternoon. I've got a MTB ride in the morning, bit of an intro ride so I thought perhaps it would be nice to go bush again in the afternoon at a gentler pace.

There are some very beautiful trails around Belrose, cascade track and heath track which I know well from MTBing and with it being spring and all, quite colourful.

Also some great scenery, a great big curving rockface at one point and there are a couple of creeks that should still have a little bit of water (nothing like the tassie shot from yesterday tho!)

Expect to walk about 10-12km over the course of three-four hours. I'm happy to guide this - please tick the poll if you are keen and PM me - I'll work the list in this thread as you register interest. May also need to organise a car pool as well

I am thinking from about 2:30 - 6pm to catch the sunset. Unfortunately belrose is light on on the pub front so not many options afterwards.

oh - and where the heck is...

Sounds sweet, I guess if I travel light I can stand the distance - I'm terribly out of shape...

I'll be driving, so car-pooling is an option.

Cheers
Steffen.

Go for a walk tomorrow night - go for an hour - you will be surprised how much even a little exercise will prepare you for the walk on the weekend.

Hi all, I am going to have to cancel unfortunately - I have a tooth infection and am on antibiotics and think that wandering around all afternoon will not be something I am up for! I'll re-schedule.

Thanks simon - I also have to lead a bike ride tomorrow morning I think about 15 people are going to be there so that will probably do me in for the day!
