Evening summer time stroll – Mt Painter and The Pinnacle Nature Reserves

Tue 17th Jan 2023

Completed
Part-day Walk

I know this is Diana’s territory and it has recently been on as a CBC evening walk, but I have to finish the 39 NRs in CNP. From the car park between 57 and 61 Mackellar Cres in Cook at 6.30pm, climb Mt Painter via a footpad to the trig for great views. Head NW to visit The Pinnacle and Bunny Hill. Around 8km and 300vm. Bring a head torch. No need to book, but appreciate it if you do. Help a pedantic pensioner walk the penultimate pair of the 39 NRs in the CNP. Qualifies for RU⇧4it with a P!
Sunset at 8:14pm, civil twilight (just see) 8:44pm.
Canberra Nature Park – a breath of fresh air for busy walkers. There are 39 Nature Reserves in the Canberra Nature Park. How many can we walk in? These are numbers 36 and 37.
