Tarourga Forest circuit
A recent walk looped for 12 kms up, down and around the forest of Tarourga in Bodalla State Forest. This attractive region west of Potato Point has a diverse eucalypt forest, with many tall trees and attractive ferns and fungi.
Celebrating 40 years
In May 1986, a group of friends came together to have fun and explore the bush together. The first walk was along Bell Ridge fire trail, a disused mining and logging track. Forty years later, the club is still going strong, and still having fun in the bush. Thousands of photos but here’s just a few.
Exploring Gulph Creek in Dampier State Forest
Gold was discovered in the valley of Gulph Creek in the 1860s and Nerrigundah briefly became the centre of a bustling mining community. The rugged terrain made mining difficult but today this area provides a delightful place to enjoy a winter walk and marvel at the ingenuity of those trying to find their fortune.
Enjoying Cowdroy and Makins Creeks
Bodalla State Forest is a favourite place for our club to explore the gullies and creeks on a sunny winter’s day. A hike doesn’t need to be long or even difficult in order to have a great time in the bush.
