Destination: Gladstone Track at Lake Hawea
Meet at 9.30 am at the usual lakeside carpark.
We will drive to the Lake Hawea Camping Ground where we'll park our cars, people from lake Hawea can join us there, at approx. 9.50 am.
Our walk starts at the Lake Hawea Dam, from there we'll walk along a track that follows the foreshore in front of Lake Hawea township and carries on travelling through open farmland to John's Creek.
From here we'll continue onto Timaru Creek Road and go up a short distance to the start of Breast Hill Track. This will be our lunchstop, whilst enjoying spectacular views over the lake and surrounding mountains.
Return the same way, with an optional stop for coffee or icecream at the Lake Hawea Store/Café.

Meeting point
Google now charges to include a map, and their instructions on getting a free API_KEY are too gobbledegooglish for me to bother. The normal meeting place is the lake front near the showgrounds, Lat:-44.6990, Lng:169.1257.
