We will start at the Picnic Area carpark on the Lake Burley Griffin shoreline near the National Zoo and Aquarium. From the Z oo we will drop down behind animal enclosures (possibly seeing a giraffe or two) onto the Bicentennial National Trail which follows the Molonglo River until we pass under the Expressway to join the Centenary Trail wh ich we follow through the Arboretum and beyond into the Aranda snow gums , Frost Hollow Walk and Aranda forest trails (interpretive signs and bro chures) before passing under Caswell Drive into the Black Mountain Natur e Reserve. We then walk back towards the cars on the Lower Woodland Trac k and briefly use the bike path tunnels under Parkes Way and the Glenloc h Interchange followed by a mix of quieter bike paths and open grassland tracks while enjoying generous lake views. Distance: 14 km. Total climb : 150m WEATHER: 4-22 degrees, sunny and no rain BRING: Morning Tea, Lunc h, drinking water, Hat, Sun protection NOTE WELL!! Two very small sectio ns of this walk are on a much-used bike path – please keep left and mo ve off to left and leave space for any bikes to pass! MEETING TIME AND P LACE: Meet at 8:15 for an 8:30 departure. · If you are coming from the south, use Lady Denman Drive, and take the very first right turn after c rossing Scrivener Dam. · If you are coming via the City or from Belconn en, turn off the expressway at the Arboretum and use Lady Denman Drive t owards Scrivener Dam, then take the very last turn left before crossing Scrivener Dam; the access road is hard to see so take it slowly once the zoo comes into sight. Those doing their first Wednesday Walk, and those who are not members of the CBC, BBC or NPA, must contact the leader to discuss the level of difficulty of the walk.
