SEPTEMBER ENDS

CITY WANDERINGS

To celebrate the long weekend we are taking a city wander to be tourists in our own town.

Start at the Garrison Church, Cnr Lower Fort Street and Argyle Street The Rocks then we will head up to Wynyard and across to Barangaroo before returning via the harbour shore to the nice French cafe at the Rocks. About 5-6 kms.

See you there,
B.

BIRCHGROVE

BIRCHGROVE



We thought to start this spring season with a walk around Birchgrove taking in Elkington Park and Ballast Point Park as well as some Suburban streets, 'tis only a 5.5km walk so not too taxing.

Meet on the corner of Cameron and Phillip Streets at the usual time, looking forward to hearing all the news from far and near.

QUAKERS HAT

EVER SEEN A QUAKERS HAT?

This Sunday could be your opportunity................Beauty Point is very aptly named and has a lovely bush track leading to the Quakers Hat. 

Magnificent middle harbour vistas and spectacular views through the Heads keep our minds off a few steps and hills on this walk. It is only a shortie but a goodie. To start the walk we have a narrow bush track, then we need our street cred as we cross Military Road to the Balmoral side and proceed to The Spit for coffee. 

Meet in Pearl Bay Avenue Mosman, near Moss Lane, at 8am.
If coming from the city on Military Road, take the second left turn after Medusa Street, half way down the Spit Bridge hill ,street parking should be plentiful.




Only 6kms!!

SAWMILLERS WITHOUT THE SCULPTURES

CULTURE VULTURES........no more.

Sadly it appears that the Sculptures at Sawmillers exhibition is no longer........I don't know what happened but have been looking forward to it and can find no reference. Undeterred, we will walk by and imagine our very own sculptures as we take this lovely 7km walk.

Meet at 8am on the corner of West Crescent and Blues Point Road, there is 2 hour street parking, with some unlimited parking at the end of West Crescent. 

Beware that the starting point on this map is not correct, the meeting place is near the very end of Blues Point Road. We will walk about 7kms because we won't do the Kirribilli loop shown on this link. We propose coming down past Luna Park and returning to Blues Point Road, there are lots of coffee shops around and about so we can decide on the day.
