This is the third of a four training walks up to Big Monks to allow participants to build up fitness over the course of four weeks. By walking the same hill every week, hopefully participants will feel stronger, more confident and maybe decrease their time.

It’s a nice steep hike through the Rob Roy Nature Reserve starting just off Orange Thom Crescent in Banks. The reward – panoramic views over southern Canberra.

Just under 5km and a 260m elevation gain which should take us under 2 hours to complete.

Please be at the meeting place ready to walk by 6:00 pm.

If the weather looks threatening, I will let all participants with valid bookings by 5 pm if the walk is still on or not.

Important to note: each of the 4 walks will be posted separately on Bilby. Ideally you will participate in all the walks but not a requirement. Do as many as you would like.
