Red Hill Morning Ramble with Coffee/Lunch To Finish Off

Red Hill Morning Ramble with Coffee/Lunch To Finish Off

Sat 11th Feb 2023

Completed

Part-day walk

Let's just enjoy an easy morning 3 hour stroll around Red Hill on and off track - depending on what we all feel like! Red Hill has lots of options and the walking is as easy or as hard as you want - we will decide together whether we want to go up stairs to visit the Tardis, or climb on footpads to the top of Davidson's Trig or walk along footpads in varying directions to and from the 5 ways saddle. This will be like one of those 'Choose your own adventure books' ie we will decide as a group what we want to do. How good is that! Magnificent views over all of Canberra. Don't expect too much in the way of birdlife if we are a large group as we'll probably be too noisy but do expect a leisurely Saturday morning. After we finish we can all walk down to Little Garran for coffee/lunch/brunch - whatever you like. There is seating in and outdoors.
