The Fortress: Beginners overnight hike

The Fortress is an awesome rock formation in the southwest part of the Grampians. The plan is to leave Friday night and camp next to the start of the walk. Saturday morning we will start the hike along the main track and enjoy amazing views (about 6 km mostly uphill). We'll camp on an great spot on Saturday night and make our way back through the same path on Sunday, hopefully getting to Melbourne by dinner time.

The hike is relatively short but uphill almost all of the way to the campsite (and downhill on Sunday). It's open to everyone with a minimum level of fitness. New members thirsty for spending some time in the outdoors are specially encouraged to join! If you are interested in coming but have never been hiking sign up and come to me on Tuesday (mandatory trip meeting for everyone who wants to go).

More details to follow on the Tuesday meeting and via e-mail.
