Mallacoota to Merrica River - Nadgee Wilderness Walk

TRIP IS CURRENTLY FULL We will walk the Nadgee Wilderness Walk from Mallacoota to Merrica River - via the coast. The first travelling day will be used to reach Mallacoota from Canberra. The walk is a wonderful coast walk and is part of the Great South Coast walk - http://greatsouthcoastwalk.net/. As well as wonderful isolated beaches there is coastal heath that is home to a shy ground parrot. While the walking is classed as medium there is sand to walk through and maybe some strong winds to face. There is water at campsites but it may take extra walking to find it and we will have to carry enough for each day's walk. At this time of year we will need to use fuel stoves. Currently the Mallacoota inlet is open to the ocean and we will take a boat across the Mallacoota Estuary. In addition I will arrange to be picked up at the end of the walk to be transported back to Mallacoota. So trip costs will include Canberra-Mallacoota Transport, camping at Mallacoota, camping in the National Park, boat ride across the estuary and transport back to Mallacoota at the end of the walk.

This activity has been marked as cancelled.
