An evening walk at Black Mountain Nature Reserve. Following a combination of fire trails and small tracks, we will pass over Little Black Mountain and then complete a loop along the ‘Hat Band/ Forest Loop' below the Black Mountain tower. With sunset at 8.14pm, we can admire changes in the evening light. Please bring a torch. The walk will start and finish at the dirt car park in front of the Actew sub-station on Frith Road (behind CSIRO).
Please book as usual via Bilby. If this walk needs to be cancelled for any reason (e.g., too hot, too wet) valid participants will be notified via Bilby by 5:30pm on day of the walk.
