Last Sunday’s scheduled outing saw nine members of the Bushwalkers’ Club visiting several lookouts, enjoying two sections of beach, and exploring a variety of habitats within the Slade Point Natural Resource Reserve. The group was led by Edie on a very pleasant winter’s day.

Unlike most walks undertaken by the club recently, this one was designed to be relaxing, accessible to all ability levels, and very close by. The reserve was entered from Teal Street, and the early morning light created a special atmosphere as participants followed the track which would guide them to a point between North Wall and Lambert’s Beach. Stunning views of the offshore islands, distant mountains and long stretches of sand were an incentive for the cameras to appear.

Morning tea break was enjoyed in the luxury of a shelter with a table and seating for once, and the day was rounded off with visits to two more lookouts, another beach and lunch, before returning to the cars.

To become part of the club and participate in the range of activities on the calendar over the next few months, the number to contact is 0429 363 929.
