Wednesday walk BBC sponsored E/M
**No bookings required for Wednesday Walks** East Jerrabomberra Nature Reserve - Easy/Medium Wednesday Walk Leader: Leigh Hermann, 0417 147 260, hermannsuk@hotmail.com This walk explores a shady patch of eucalypt woodland bordered on the west by Jerrabomberra estate, on the north by Edwin Land Parkway, and Old Cooma Road to the east. It is a walking and mountain biking area (see map 'Jerra Trails', https://www.trailforks.com/region/jerra-trails-13010/) also known as Stringybark Bushland Reserve. Features include a shady flowing creek, a treehouse and ‘Mum's Spot’, and some views. Bring morning tea, and lunch to enjoy at Fox Hollow just before the end of the morning walk. Also bring plenty of water as it will be a hot day (note the forecast max of 34C). We will avoid some of the climb if it is too hot. Distance: 9 km. Climb: 200 m. Terrain: mostly track and footpad with a shortish section of off-track. At times rocky and gravelly, so poles may be helpful. Map: Tuggeranong. Meeting point: Because of limited parking at the start of the walk we will meet at Jerrabomberra Community Centre carpark, 25/31 Jerrabomberra Parkway. Take the Jerrabomberra Parkway exit from the big roundabout, then take the first right. Take care to avoid the 2-hour parking section. From here we will car-pool for 5 minutes to the start of the walk at Turner Place. Meeting time: 8.20 am for an 8.30 am departure. Weather forecast for Queanbeyan: partly cloudy, min 15, max 34, 60% chance of up to 6mm rain in the afternoon/evening, with a possible thunderstorm. Those doing their first Wednesday walk and also prospective walkers who are not members of the BBC, NPA or CBC clubs must contact the leader to discuss the level of difficulty of the walk.
