Campsites for the upper river have been booked. In addition to this core part of the trip, part icipants are welcome to join the leader for a couple more days of paddli ng and walking, staying in a campground (or other accommodation, if indi viduals prefer) in the Noosa area. Possible activities include a day of kayaking on Lake Weyba and its tributary creeks and a day-walk (or sever al shorter walks) in Noosa National Park – there are a range of walks described on AllTrails. Note: for those who do not have their own kayak but are interested in joining this trip, it may be possible to borrow ka yaks and accessories from other CBC members travelling to the area – p lease contact the leader if you are interested in this. Kayaks are avail able to rent from local commercial operators – the leader can provide details. A day-by-day itinerary for this activity is available from the leader.
