Meeting: Tue, 16 Oct 2012, 7:15 pm
Requirements: Be comfortable with the distance of walk. Good walking shoes / boots, day pack and organise your own water and food to carry (picnic lunch on the walk). Must sign up online and attend the trip meeting.
A day walk from Daylesford to Hepburn Springs along the Tipperary Walking Track. The track follows Sailors Creek and passes Tipperary Springs and Bryces Flat, along a section of the Great Dividing Trail.
Walk length - 14km (option for 16km if time) linear walk. 'Daywalks Around Melbourne' suggests 5 - 6 hours for the 16km walk. The walking is described as easy with little level change but the length will take the time.
Starting point - Daylesford (apprix 1.5hrs drive from Melbourne). Finishing point - Hepburn Springs. Park cars at Daylesford and return from Hepburn Springs via shuttle bus (Kara to check times) or taxi or possibly a car shuttle.
Number of places likely to be limited to 12 people, this will also depend on availability of cars and drivers as I will not have a car for this trip.
