This E-M Wednesday Walk will be to enjoy Autumn in the Arboretum and possibly see some fungi. Please meet and par k by 9.30am in the Cork Plantation carpark which is the first right turn after entering the Arboretum. From there we will wander in the Cork For est to see if we can find any mushroom Amanitas. These are the bright re d with white spots mushroom, then up and over short hill to the Wide Bro wn Land Lookout to view the Forests autumn colours. From here walk down through the Maples and Oaks Forests to the front dam. We will continue t o walk in a clockwise direction to the southern border, returning up to the Dairy Farmers Hill lookout where the different forest designs should be apparent. We descend walking through the colourful larches and birch es forests to the back dam and over to STEP, the only forest with a mult itude of native plants. After passing the cafe, yep pop in if you wish, back to cars using the zigzag path and walk though more forests with aut umn colours. Leaving at 9.30am means we should miss the heavy traffic on the Tugg Parkway, bring morning tea and lunch and prepare for slow walk ing to absorb and enjoy the autumn colours.
