Monday's Walk 26th August

Cairnmuir Landslide control works

A shortish (90 minutes one way) walk up to the Cairnmuir Landslide earthworks at the head of the Cromwell Gorge. We will drive to Bannockburn and on towards the DoC carpark at Cornish Point. from where we will follow the Cairnmuir Track for 30 minutes before branching left to a low saddle leading to the earthworks and lunch. Return the same way, in plenty of time for a café stop at Nichols. Any overnight showers should have cleared by mid morning and the walk is relatively sheltered from the southerlies, but be prepared for changeable weather.

Walk leader: Martin Unwin

After travelling out to Ardgour Road near Tarras, from the DOC car park we will walk up the Dry Creek Valley on an easy track, until finding a good lunch spot.

Returning back on same track.

Refreshments at Tarras Cafe compulsory.

Monday's Walk 11th August

Scaife gravesite on Roy's Peak via Waterfall Creek and lakeside

With clearing weather but still some chance of cooling southerlies we'll keep it simple and local. with no need for cars. From the usual rendezvous point on the lake front we'll follow the Millennium track past Waterfall Creek to gain the Roys Peak access track back to the main road. From there it's 10 minutes to the Roys Peak carpark and about 30 minutes to our lunch spot at the Scaife gravesite at the top of the initial zigzag. Return the same way.

Walk leader: Martin Unwin
