ADVENTURE WALKERS

Walking:  the most ancient exercise and still the best modern exercise.  Carrie Latet

WHO IS AN ADVENTURE WALKER? Anybody who enjoys the challenge of a long walk, who might like to carry all their own gear, or who doesn't mind roughing it for a bit is an adventure walker.   challenge orienteering   rogaining            Warrumbungle N.P. NSW

Where can I go? Anywhere in this great wide continent. A good place to start is:    the top 10 walks   Lane Cove River, NSW     What's the best time to go? The further north, the warmer the climate, so tropical or desert walks are better done in winter, whereas the southern walks may be more enjoyable in summer.     Wilpena Pound, SA

Solo or Group? A solo walk gives you time for yourself, to reflect; perhaps to challenge yourself. If you are walking solo please check the safety page   Walking Clubs? These clubs make walking in groups enjoyable and sociable. They have lots of activities for members as well as top walks, both local and australia-wide.   See Clubs           photo courtesy Bushwalkers Wilderness Rescue Squad NSW     Jon Muir is our best known adventure walker.
