Monday 27 April

Monday’s walk this week will be Lindis Peak. Description. A 13km return walk gaining an elevation of 1,226m. This involves a short steep beginning and then a steady climb up a 4WD track across farmland. Lunch will be at the summit with fabulous 360 degree views. In order to achieve this we will need to keep a reasonable pace uphill! Meet at the lake front for a prompt departure at 9.30. We drive to Old Faithful Rd to start the walk. There’s a possibility of those who don’t want the climb of walking to the Old Lindis Hotel ruins. Petrol contribution $20. Leader Jane Hudson. 0272929774

Monday 20th April

Destination: Lake Hayes Loop Track Let's meet at the lakefront at 9.30 as usual and Plan A is to drive to the Bendemeer Bay carpark on Lake Hayes and enjoy the autumn colours and views of snow covered hills. The Loop Track is only an undulating 8 km walk but given the temperatures tomorrow (high of 9!) we’ll stay low and hopefully warm. Petrol costs $15 pp There is a plan B closer to home if the weather is really horrid. Leader: Jane Hudson.

Monday 13th April 2026

Destination: Countryside Trail

Description: A 13 km walk from the old Shotover Bridge to Arrowtown via the Countryside Trail. A mostly level or gently undulating walk sometimes along back roads and sometimes along marked walking trails with a total elevation gain of 220 m:

The trip requires a shuttle to reposition cars so we will allow for this depending on numbers. A good day to enjoy the autumn colours.

Petrol costs $15.
