Mid-week Hikes, 6am every Wednesday. Picnic Point
Event Information
About this event
If you have been watching Happy Hikers for a while and are interested in giving hiking a go this is an ideal opportunity for you to jump on in.
Feel free to come with a friend/family or come alone, there will be others there flying solo, so you won't feel like the odd one out. Trust me!
You don't need to be super fit, but you should be able to walk for an hour and walk up and down hills with breaks.
This is a super friendly, very safe environment. We have your back every step of the way. Do not fear you are going to hold the group up or be left behind. We take regular breaks allowing everyone to catch their breath if they need to.
We start and end strictly on time, so if you're late you may miss us. Please wear comfortable clothes, a hat and supportive shoes/boots. Bring a water bottle and a good sense of humour!
Cost: $10/person/walk or $80/person for all 10 hikes (these can be used for any hike mid-week or weekend)
