For Fathers Day we take a stroll around Balmoral and Georges Heights taking in some lovely views and of course one of our favourite cafes....the 'hole in the wall' at Chowder Bay.

Only about 5.5kms, but be warned there are steps.

Meet at the carpark (free) for Gunners Barracks, Georges Heights - take the Suakin Drive turnoff from Middle Head Road.

Looking forward,

AVOIDING THE CBD.........CITY TO SURF WEEKEND

See you at 8am Sunday

ELIZABETH BAY AND DARLING POINT

IN AN EASTERLY DIRECTION....

For a change of scene this Sunday we will head over to the eastern side. This is an interesting walk with lots of variation. Passing by Garden Island, Elizabeth Bay and Rushcutters Bay, we also discover some interesting steps and hidden shortcuts to historic Elizabeth Bay House and delightful Fred McElhone Park, one of the most picturesque spots you will find.

There are hills and flats, we designed the walk so that we go DOWN the steps(phew!), the distance  measures 7.7kms.

We will meet at 8am in the pedestrian Plaza opposite the Finger Wharf, on Cowper Wharf Road, near pedestrian lights.  On street parking for 2 hours is available if you make a right hand turn after the Shell Service Station on Cowper Wharf Road, meter money required.

Please let me know if you will be coming, then I will SMS if we cancel.........the forecast is for showers, 

Cheers,
Bernadette

ECHOES OF ROSEVILLE

ROSEVILLE BECKONS

To send us loopy this Sunday we are discovering some more bush areas beginning in Roseville Chase. 

Meet near 15 Normac Street, Roseville, near the access to Roseville Marina and, more importantly, Echo on the Marina cafe(echoonthemarina.com.au)The road is quite narrow with twists and turns but there is parking on the side of the road.

From Normac Street we will cross Boundary Road and skirt Roseville Golf Course before some bush walking on Two Creeks Track by the water under the Roseville Bridge. There will be hills and bush tracks as well as some street walking(!) In the sunshine Echo on the Marina is a wonderful venue for coffee.
