We are a group of family/long time friends who started walking 14 months ago, we started as 6 but now nearly always 10, all near or over 50 we have had 13 walk with us over the summer. We now have some younger members of our families joining us & where permitted a dog. We share walk selection & planning in rotation and try to walk as a group every 3 weeks. We started walking mainly in the NW Coastal regions but are starting to plan longer walks with over night stays, but not bush yet. It's great, fun & very entertaining some times with colourful language when the little leaches appear. Our next walk is planned for this Saturday to Meander Falls.

Yeah, the Meander walk is one I haven't done yet, but it's on my list. The falls themselves can freeze this time of year if it's cold enough, I imagine that would be a sight!

Got some photos through work the other day of meander falls taken this year by a local fly fisherman...frozen solid. was a speccy sight....made me think a wander in that direction was in order next big chill.

Good for you and yours Ian. I am really interested in great walks you might have found where I can take my dog. Especially ones closer perhaps to the central north such as Meander Falls. Am keen to follow your groups progress.

The tiers make for a great place to walk, and most seem dog-friendly. We're always after walks we can take The Captain (pictured) on. For a small dog, he's done some tough walks in the past!

G'day Ian,
Your walking group sounds really good ,for an easy "overnighter" you may well consider booking the Scout Hut on Cradle Mt for an introduction to slightly more difficult walks. based there you can access all of the day walks in the Mt area including Cradle its self and still get back to civilised accomodation for only $20.00 per head per night(less if you have any registerd Scouts in your family)there is a minimum charge of around $50.00 per night .
To book contact Richard Barnes ph 03 6429 1227 the hut accomodates 14 but regretably no dogs.
You only need food and bedding as everything else is provided including a resident Warden who can provide good advice if required.

Regards
Corvus
