Monday’s walk 13 November 2023

Millennium Track. Meet at 0930 as above.
Weather forecast not great so the walk is close to town and the default coffee options. We'll walk as far as we want to but no further than 2 hours out from our car park meeting spot at Roy's Bay, lunch then return.
Be prepared for some rain ☔️ if we're not already getting wet at the car park!
