Trips
Day trips
Day trips are organised throughout the year. It can include social activities, getting to know the local area, short walks through local National Parks, or canoeing trips, BBQs, Christmas party, or sausage sizzles. It is a good way for new members to get to know us and vice versa.
Weekend trips
Weekend camps away and visiting areas further afield are a great way for those working to take a well deserved break from their busy lives. A trip to the Ewingar Forest, or a private farm in Uki, or Tyalgum are just a few of the fun trips we have had in the last year. Long weekends allow us to go a bit further and spend a bit longer in places such as Mann River or Yurayugir National Park and many other places.
Extended touring
Long distance touring to Cape York, the Victorian High Country, Kimberleys, Moreton Island, Fraser Island are some of the trips the club has been on.
